The station is served by the Tosa Kuroshio Railway Nakamura Line, and is located 24.1 km from the starting point of the line at Kubokawa.[3] Only local trains stop at the station.[4]
There is no station building. The station, which is unmanned, consists of a single side platform serving a single line and is located on an embankment high above the adjacent main road and buildings. A ramp from the main road leads to a shelter for waiting passengers which is located on a lower level. Steps from the shelter lead up to the platform which is thus not wheelchair accessible. There is no shelter on the platform itself. The station is a designated evacuation area in the event of tsunamis.[5][6] [7]

昭和45年国鉄中村線土佐白浜駅が設置された。現在は堤防ができて国道が広がり、後背地がない分だけ海の方へ拡張されているが、以前はあたり一帯に真白な浜が広がっていたという.
