    No.7 of Best Things to Do in South Korea
    Highlights: Udo, also known as Coral Island, Haenyeo Island, and Lighthouse Island, is a small island located in the east of Jeju. The whole island is shaped like a lying cow, hence the name Niu Island. With the exception of Uduubong, a parasitic volcano in Hallasan Mountain, Udo is flat as a whole, with a steep cliff facing the sea. 80% of the filming of "Mermaid Princess" starring Jeon Do-yeon took place on Udo Island. Choi Ji Woo's "Lian Lizhi" and Jun Ji Hyun's "Untouchable Lovers" have both been filmed in Udo, which has become one of the representative tourist attractions in Jeju. The peak standing on the flat ground of Udo Island is Niutou Peak. The unique height can not only have a panoramic view of Udo Island, but even the Seongsan Sunrise Peak. Climb up the hillside along the fence to the top and come to the white lighthouse. The trail connecting the lawn to the reed field seems more attractive than the view from the top of the lighthouse. A few cows are scattered among the bushes, reminiscent of the island's name. Unknown wildflowers sway in the wind, as romantic as a lyric poem. There are also microscopic models of Sokcho Lighthouse and Budo Lighthouse. The road to the lighthouse is very steep, and it is not suitable for the elderly and infirm to climb. In addition, the "Eight Views of Udo Island" is the representative scenery of Udo Island, which includes day and night (bright moon in the daytime, fishing sails at night), sky and earth (Tianjin Mountain View, Ditou Qingsha), front and back (Qianpu) Wangdao, Houhai Stone Wall), east and west (Whale Cave on the east coast and Baisha on the west coast). Under the abruptly standing Niutou Peak are the Houhai Stone Wall and the East Coast Whale Cave among the Eight Views of Niu Island. The stone wall in Houhai is 20m high and 30m wide, and surrounds the Heisha (Black Sand) beach, which is famous for its black sand. The East Coast Whale Cave located at the end of the beach is one of the famous caves in Udo Island, which means that it can accommodate whales from the east, and is also called the "Nose Cave". There are holes in the East Coast Whale Cave, the entrance is only visible at low tide. It is another taste to enjoy the sky and sea view outside in the cave.

    "It is a pity that it is rainy day ☔️ There are long beaches here, and there are different water activities to play. There are many very special boutique souvenir shops and coffee shops next to it. Looking at the sea view, taste breakfast and coffee, especially healing and relaxation, very Chill experience, stealing floating life for half a day leisure 😌"

    "The sea in Xiande Beach is high in the morning, and the sea is gradually colored from green to blue, but I really don't want to get up and take pictures. In the afternoon, the tide was low, the wind was calm, the sand on the beach was very fine, and it was a little bit tied. The visibility of the sea was at least one meter above, and the slope of the beach was very slow. For me from the north, I suddenly felt that Jeju Island was also good, more than an hour later than Sanya."
    Jeju.Hamdeok/Jocheon/Gujwa

    Featured in Best Things to Do
    Highlights: Hamdeok Beach in the east of Jeju City is a popular summer resort. The beach here is very clean, and the bathing area is shallow and has a perfect slope for splashing with children. Hamdeok Beach can accommodate 50,000 tourists at the same time, and various supporting facilities are very complete. Hamdeok Beach and Shiniu Peak are far from each other. On days with moderate waves, surfing in the sea is also a good choice. On the basalt seaside unique to Jeju, there is a lighthouse that guides the fishermen, and it is perfectly combined with the surrounding scenery to form a beautiful landscape. This is also the leading watermelon producing area in Jeju Island. You can taste fresh sashimi in the seafood shop along the beach. There is Bukchon Fishing Farm 2 kilometers east of the beach.

    "It is a playground that is not too big. It rained on the day we went. There are many projects that did not open a team. The price inside is very expensive. It is recommended to bring some food and drink in. The souvenir shop at the entrance of the scenic spot is very expensive. It is recommended not to buy anything."

    "Still good, 20 minutes by taxi from the airport. You can climb the mountain to see the sea against the pine trees, which is quite special. There is a cafe with the best sea view location, and there are lounge chairs, but it is quite expensive. There are a lot of food on the street, the cheapest seafood noodles are about 60 yuan, there are few seafood inside, and the smallest seafood platter is 6w won. In addition, you can only rely on taxis, you can't take a bus with a suitcase, and the driver refuses to carry it."

    "Both sunrise and sunset were beautiful. The sandy beach is also a beautiful sandy beach like Shimoda, so there is no problem walking barefoot."
    Busan.Haeundae/Centum City
    16km from downtown Busan
    Highlights: There are many beaches in Busan, but Songjeong Beach is a special one. Compared with the noisy Haeundae Beach, many people prefer the quiet Songjeong Beach. Songrijeong is located at the height of Zhudao Park and is a famous scenic spot of Songjeong Beach. The endless sea view makes people forget all their worries in an instant. The long castle near Songri Pavilion is a famous photography spot. Many photographers will come here to take pictures, and couples will also stroll here hand in hand. The Songri-tei itself is also a good place to watch the sunset. To get to Songri-tei, you have to go through the walking path of Takeshima Park. This promenade is paved with cobblestones, with many memorial sculptures erected along the way, and benches for people to rest. From Songrijeong, follow the promenade back to the entrance of Zhushima Park, and you can go to Songjeong Beach. In Songjeong Beach, don't forget to visit the red and white lighthouses, they seem familiar to you, do you remember that they all appeared in those Korean dramas?

    "It’s fun and safe. The professionals below take it to take pictures for you. You can also feed small fish. Children can also play. The clothes will not get wet. It is recommended to go when the weather is good on sunny days. I went after the rain. Looking at the water is not very clear."

Under the supervision of divers, tourists wear transparent oxygen glass helmets and walk on the seabed with a water depth of 3-10 meters, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the seabed up close without getting wet.
