Top 10 Beaches in Gangneung, Gangwon-do

July 29, 2021 Layne Dawes

The sun rises just a bit more beautifully in Gangneung, particularly in nearby Jeongdongjin, where watching the dawn break on the South Korean horizon is an epic experience and a national New Year's pastime. The beaches and museums are splendid, and Gangneung’s unique parks are worthy of exploration. Kids will be awed by the submarine and warship at Tongil Park, while adults will go nuts for the dramatic architecture and contemporary works of Haslla Art World.

Gyeongpo Beach

Reviewed By eidsotk - Jakarta, Indonesia

388/5000 view of gyeongpo beach in mid-december 2019. The beach is very beautiful for children to play even though the cold wind blows very hard and big waves. the cold experience while walking paid off with a visit to a very large number of seafood restaurants at affordable prices. about 50% cheaper compared to the same menu at the hotel we stayed.

This beach was very clean and the sand is soft. The water is a bit rough so be careful if you swim. This beach is famous for all the coffee shops along the beach with great views of the ocean.

East Cost Beach of South Korea is a wonderful blue beach colour. its very diffrent with west coast beach. If you have time, you must visit some beach at east side. It will takes more than 3 hours from Seoul. So i suggest you must stay overnight at Sokcho . Donghae side
