Clear waters, a beautiful beach with white sand and seashells, fantastic sunset, and the view of Biyangdo Island beyond sum up to describe Geumneung Beach. The white sandy beach where the bottom of the shallow, blue water is clearly seen creates an illusion that one can easily walk all the way to Biyangdo.

Geumneung Beach is directly connected to Hyeopjae Beach, another popular tourist spot on the west side of Jeju Island. However, despite the common charming elements the two beaches share, Geumneung Beach sees a relatively small number of visitors in comparison, so it exudes a more relaxing vibe. Moreover, the beach and the parking lot are directly connected, making it more convenient to move baggage and other belongings. The newly built showers supply warm water, which is another advantge of the beach.

It is recommended to visit the beach during the hours of ebb tide. Once the sea water recedes afar, a vast, beautiful sandy beach appears. The water is shallow in many parts where natural swimming pools are formed, allowing little children to be able to play safely.

A port with picturesque scenery
Geumneung Port, where fishing boats are anchored, is as beautiful as a picture, and has been used as the background for many scenes in the drama. The vacant lot with the pavilion, which was a place for women divers (Haenyeo) to talk, is also special to those who watched the drama. Because it is the place where Jeong-jun used to park the bus and spend intimate time with Yeong-ok. If you enter the breakwater behind it, there is a cute mural painted on it, and there is a white lighthouse at the end.
