Matsushima-Kaigan Station opened on 18 April 1927 as Matsushima Kōen Station on the Miyagi Electric Railway. When the line was nationalised on 1 May 1944 the station was renamed to its present form. It passed to JR East at the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987. The station was closed from 11 March to 28 May 2011 because of damage from the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. In late 2019 it was switched to a temporary building so that a new elevated station with a second platform and accessible elevators could be built; the new building opened on 15 November 2021, and the renovation was fully completed on 28 February 2022.
