In　recent　years,　the　development　of　coastal　areas　in　China　has　accelerated　rapidly,　and　the　land　used　in　coastal　areas　has　undergone　big　changes.　As　an　important　area　on　the　southeast　coast　of　China,　analyzing　Fujian　Province???s　process　of　land　use　changes　and　driving　factors　can　lay　a　theoretical　foundation　for　reasonable　land　planning　in　coastal　areas.　This　paper　utilizes　transfer　matrix,　dynamic　degree,　information　entropy,　equilibrium　degree,　spatial　autocorrelation　and　principal　component　to　research　the　status　and　changes　of　land　use　in　Fujian　Province　from　1980　to　2018.　The　results　show　that:　(1)　Over　the　past　39　years,　the　greatly　decreased　farmland　and　grass　in　Fujian　Province　has　been　mainly　converted　into　construction　land.　The　upward　trend　showed　in　forest,　construction　land,　water　area　and　unused　land,　and　they　are　mainly　occupied　farmland　and　grass.　(2)　In　Fujian　Province,　the　change　of　land　use　structure　is　fluctuating,　though　the　development　of　regional　land　structure　tends　to　be　stable.　The　food　security　land,　ecological　construction　land　and　urban　construction　land　have　positive　spatial　agglomeration　effect　and　spatial　heterogeneity.　(3)　The　main　driving　factors　of　land　use　change　in　Fujian　Province　are　at　an　economic　development　level,　industrial　structure　adjustments,　population　expansion　and　climate　change.
