    On 30 November 1924, the station was opened under the name Okutei (澳底; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ò-té), which is a fishing port located 6 km north to this station.
    On 1 December 1952, the station name was changed into the current name.
    On 25 July 2005, reconstruction of the station's main structure was finished. This reconstruction was managed by the Northeast Coast National Scenic Area Administration, and sponsored by Taipower Company. The name board of the station is written in the imitation Song typeface, which is unique among TRA stations.
