Miurakaigan Station is served by the Keikyū Kurihama Line and is located 11.2 rail kilometers from the junction at Horinouchi Station, and 63.5 km from the starting point of the Keikyū Main Line at Shinagawa Station in Tokyo.
Miurakaigan Station opened on July 7, 1966, as the southern terminus of the Kurihama Line.[1] In April 1975, the Kurihama Line was extended one station beyond Miurakaigan to the present terminus at Misakiguchi Station.[1]
