Jeongdong-Simgok Badabuchae-gil Trail

Reviewed By pl55 - Singapore, Singapore

This 2.8 km walk along the rocky coast can be enjoyed by most and not just the super fit. Do start from the Jeongdong end at the Sun Cruise resort as advised by a tripadvisor reviewer as it's easier to go down the higher steeper stairs here. Try not to be nervous when treading on iron grill steps and boardwalk. I thoroughly enjoyed the walk despite the effort of going up and down stairs in several parts. Although visitors are not supposed to take photos along the walk, many of us tend to forget without any problem fortunately. Upon reaching Simgok, we spotted a waiting cab and hopped into it to head for Chodang Village to have our sundubu lunch.

Super amazing experience learning the lessons from the English speaking instructor. Nice, kind, friendly, on-time and super professional. If you want to learn to ski or snowboard I give a 10/10 recommendation to K.I.S.S My ski instructor was Jasmine, and snowboard instructor was Jeff. They both taught me so well in just 10 lessons!!! Had the best time of my life at Vivaldi because of KISS. They can also arrange the hotel and transportation for you seamlessly. Just perfect!! ????

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.

Naksan Beach

Reviewed By YJ_KIM_YJ

Naksan Beach is full of wonderful scenery. The beach is very wide and the waves are nice! The clouds in the sky are wonderful and big as if they eat me up. And expecially when the sun is setting, the sky is really beautiful. It will be a very pleasant memory to walk along the beach with people you like. Of course, it is nice to go there alone. There are seafood restaurants nearby. Raw fish and crabs are fresh and delicious:)

Reviewed By thesoulofseoulblog - Seoul, South Korea

Chuam was such a fun beach spot. There’s a beach as well as a suspension bridge and a sculpture park too. It’s a beautiful area to spend the day. #추천웰니스관광지 #wellnesskorea #wellnesstourismsupporters #한국관광공사 #동해무릉건강숲
