A substrate processing method includes: increasing a temperature of a substrate by heating the substrate; after the increasing the temperature of the substrate, forming a liquid film of a pre-wetting liquid on a first surface of the substrate by supplying the pre-wetting liquid to the first surface of the substrate while heating and rotating the substrate at a first rotational speed; after the forming the liquid film, processing the first surface of the substrate with a chemical liquid by supplying the chemical liquid to the first surface of the substrate while heating and rotating the substrate at a second rotational speed that is lower than the second rotational speed; and after the processing the first surface of the substrate, decreasing the temperature of the substrate.
