Chapel St. Leonards is a seaside resort village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated 5 miles (8 km) north from the resort of Skegness and just north of Ingoldmells. It also lies right next to the North Sea.
The village is a location for caravan park holidays as well as campsites, and is next to several miles of beach, and close to Fantasy Island, market towns, and the Lincolnshire Wolds.
A landmark is Chapel Point, 1 mile (1.6 km) north from the centre of the village. It has a restored part of a major Second World War coastal defence line retaining the viewing platform. The adjacent North Sea Observatory, a visitors' centre providing a facility for year-round use, was constructed between 2016 and 2018.
In recent years Chapel Point has become a location for birdwatchers, being visited by migrating birds such as the Mediterranean gull.
