Kimigahama Station opened on 21 June 1931. The original western-style station building fell into disrepair in the post-war years, and was eventually demolished, leaving just the platform. In December 1990, a white Italian-style archway was added, but this was partially demolished in February 2007, leaving just the bare pillars.
In fiscal 2010, the station was used by an average of 16 passengers daily (boarding passengers only). The passenger figures for previous years are as shown below.
