Namiitakaigan Station opened on 20 December 1961 as Namiita Station (浪板駅, Namiita-eki). The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the Japan National Railways (JNR) on 1 April 1987. It was renamed to its present name on 3 December 1994. Operations on the Yamada Line between Miyako Station and Kamaishi Station were suspended after the 11 March 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, which severely damaged the tracks and area surrounding the station. As of 2018, the station have been rebuilt along with the rest of the closed segment of the Yamada Line. It was transferred to the Sanriku Railway upon completion on 23 March 2019. This segment joined up with the Kita-Rias Line on one side and the Minami-Rias Line on the other, which together constitutes the entire Rias Line.[1] Accordingly, this station became an intermediate station of Rias Line.
