The club was established in 2002 by Bill Darwin and his sister, Anne Darwin.[1]
In the 2017–18 season the club were champions of the Vale of Clwyd and Conwy Football League Premier Division at the first attempt[2] and were promoted to the Welsh Alliance League Division Two. After the FAW league pyramid restructure in 2019/20 Kinmel Bay F.C. did not meet the new criteria set out by the FAW and returned to the North Wales Coast East Premier Division. Kinmel Bay F.C. reserves were moved from the FAW reserve league to the newly formed North Wales Coast reserve league.
Currently[when?] Kinmel Bay Football Club have a number of teams in both boys and girls ages from under-5s to under-16s who all compete in Rhyl and District Junior League and North Wales Girls Football League.
