Located at the start and end of Pine Fragrance Road, lies a serene and chic beach. However, the locals' possessive behavior, particularly their control over the road, is detracting from the beach's elegance.
Ah, the beach with a campsite. A sight to behold, indeed. The sunset over the West Sea was simply divine. However, the real star of the show was the power plant looming over the horizon like a giant jade tee. It's like having a front-row seat to the not-so-glamorous side of modern civilization. But hey, who needs pristine views when you can have a glimpse of industrial progress, right?
The beach is pleasant, but it lacks ample space and can be quite crowded during the summer months. Additionally, there is a nearby campsite and limited parking available.
Small but not too much crowed place."
The beach, although my favorite in Korea so far, had some drawbacks. The water was chilly even in August, but it was clear and the current was manageable. However, my father-in-law warned us about sudden drops in depth, which made me nervous as a mother of two young girls. There were lifeguards present, but they didn't seem attentive to safety. The beach was a mix of sand and rocks, but I still enjoyed it. One issue was the potential for overcharging by locals, as we were asked to pay an unexpected fee for setting up a tent. The shower facilities were available for a fee, but I avoided them due to their condition. Snacks were available at nearby marts, but cash was the only accepted payment. There was a restaurant serving 돈까스 and raw fish, but the food was average. The bathroom options were limited, with one trailer having no running water in the sink and the other being a squatter toilet without toilet paper. We used the sinks to clean sand off our shoes after using the restroom. It's important to keep your shoes on at all times as we found broken glass on the beach.
