This beach is absolutely breathtaking! It is one of the most gorgeous beaches in southern Korea. The beach stretches out with long white sand and boasts a stunning blue-green ocean. Geumildo island, where the beach is located, is primarily known for its seaweed industry rather than tourism, so it's not overly commercialized. It's quite a distance from the city, but you can easily reach it by taking a ferry from either goheung or yaksan.
