Misakiguchi Station, Railway terminal station in Miura, Japan.
Misakiguchi Station is a dead-end terminal on the Keikyū Kurihama Line with two parallel platforms built on an elevated structure. The tracks end here and form the southern terminus of this railway route.
The station began service on April 26, 1975, marking the extension of railway service to southern Kanagawa Prefecture. This expansion brought rail access to the Miura region for the first time.
The station's designation as KK72 reflects how Japanese railways organize their infrastructure systematically. It serves as a gateway for people traveling to nearby neighborhoods and coastal areas of Miura.
The station is easy to spot as it stands on an elevated structure and is clearly marked as the line's terminus. From here, visitors can walk to Miura City Hall or the Kanagawa Agricultural Research Institute.
The station sits about 13 kilometers south of Horinouchi Junction and serves as a significant turning point in daily train scheduling for the entire line. The roughly 16,700 daily passengers use this location to reach a coastal region that was previously difficult to access.
