Wadamisaki Station opened on 8 July 1890 as Wadasakicho Station on the Sanyō Railway, initially handling freight only; passenger services began on 1 November 1911. Nationalised on 1 December 1906 and made part of the San'yō Main Line in 1909, the stop became one terminus of the short branch known informally as the Wadamisaki Line. Freight ended in 1980 and the station became unstaffed on 26 February 1999, with fare collection moved to Hyōgo. The line was electrified on 1 July 2001, and on the same week, the Kobe Municipal Subway Kaigan Line station opened beside the JR platform on 7 July 2001.

The JR Wadamisaki Line runs only during morning and evening commuter peaks—weekday counts are seventeen round trips, Saturdays twelve, and Sundays just two—reflecting the station's role as the gateway to the surrounding Mitsubishi shipyards and factories.
