Seamill is a village in the west coast of Scotland, about 5 miles North of Ardrossan and 8 miles South of Largs. It is sometimes considered part of West Kilbride, and sometimes considered as a village in its own right.

It is named after one of its oldest buildings, the Sea Mill, a grain watermill that appears in Johannes Blaeu's Atlas of Scotland published in Amsterdam in 1654. It has a hotel called the Seamill Hydro which has a swimming pool, tennis court and a football pitch. There is a golf club known as West Kilbride Golf Club, with a putting practice green and a course with eighteen holes. Brilliant place for fishing north of Seamill (Portencross pier)
