History

Kii-Temma Station opened on 4 December 1912 as Nachiguchi Station on the Shingu Railway, between Miwasaki and what is now Kii-Katsuura. On 4 December 1917 it was renamed Tenma Station. With the nationalisation of the Shingu Railway on 1 July 1934 it became part of the Kisei-chū Line and took the present name "Kii-Temma". Freight and parcel handling ceased on 1 February 1962, and the station was de-staffed on 14 March 1985. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 it passed to JR West. ICOCA use began on 13 March 2021. The simple ticket-vending machine inside the capsule-style shelter was removed on 10 December 2013 due to age.

Notes

Both neighbouring stations sit only about a kilometre away in either direction, giving Kii-Temma an unusually urban inter-station spacing for the rural Kinokuni coast.
