Kamakura Station opened on 16 June 1889 on the government-railway spur from Ōfuna to Yokosuka, serving the Imperial Japanese Navy's arsenal and related facilities at Yokosuka. The line was officially designated the Yokosuka Line in October 1909. The Enoshima Electric Railway opened its Komachi stop by the station's east exit on 14 November 1910; it was renamed Kamakura on 18 October 1915 and moved to its present site beside the main-line station on 1 March 1949. The current JNR station building was completed on 3 October 1984, and the clock tower of the much-loved second-generation building of 1916 was moved to and preserved in the west plaza. The station passed to JR East at privatisation on 1 April 1987, and the JR platforms received numbers JO 07 (Yokosuka Line) and JS 07 (Shōnan-Shinjuku Line) in 2016.

Although other Enoden stations charge 190 yen for a platform entry ticket, Kamakura is exceptionally priced at 130 yen to match the adjoining JR fare structure — though that ticket can only be used inside the Enoden side of the shared station.
