Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus of the invention includes: a substrate holding unit that holds a substrate almost in a horizontal posture; a rotating unit that rotates the substrate held by the substrate holding unit about a vertical shaft line; and an etching liquid nozzle disposed oppositely to a bottom surface of the substrate held by the substrate holding unit and having plural discharge ports each having a different distance from a rotation center of the substrate rotated by the rotating unit so as to discharge an etching liquid toward the bottom surface of the substrate rotated by the rotating unit from the plural discharge ports.
