Kernot was a railway station on the Wonthaggi line located on the Bass Coast, Victoria. The station was originally called "McKenzie" and opened with the Wonthaggi railway line in 1910, but was renamed Kernot in 1915.[1] It was located within walking distance of the Kernot General Store. The station closed with the line in 1978.

The retaining wall of the platform is still in fairly good condition and the level crossing on the nearby main road is still visible.
