Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a transport block and a plurality of processing blocks. In the transport block, a transport device for transporting a substrate is disposed. The plurality of processing blocks are disposed adjacent to the transport block and process the substrate transported by the transport device. Each processing block includes one liquid processing unit and one drying unit. The liquid processing unit performs a liquid film forming processing so as to form a liquid film on the top surface of the substrate. The drying unit performs a supercritical drying processing in which the substrate is dried by bringing the substrate into contact with the processing fluid in a supercritical state. The liquid processing unit and the drying unit included in the same processing block are disposed on the same side with respect to the movement direction of the transport device of the transport block.
