Eastry Rural District was a rural district in the county of Kent, England, from 1894 to 1974. It was subject to a significant boundary reform in 1935 when several parishes were gained from the disbanded Isle of Thanet Rural District and other parishes were reorganised.

In 1974, with the nationwide municipal reorganization, the rural district was split between the District of Dover and the District of Thanet.
