Queenborough
- Administrative Port: Hastings

- Population: 3471
Queenborough is a small town on the Isle of Sheppey in the Swale borough of Kent in South East England. Queenborough today still reflects something of its original 18th-century seafaring history, from which period most of its more prominent buildings survive. The church however is the sole surviving feature from the medieval period.
