Detailed itinerary

1

Sinchang Windmill Coastal Road
Sinchang Windmill Coastal Road is on the northwest side of Jeju Island and has a distinctive offshore wind farm as a prominent landmark. The white windmills and emerald waters along the winding shoreline are a refreshing example of the autumn landscape and an environmentally friendly way to generate electricity. This road is also one of the most beautiful places to view the sunset from Jeju, so be sure to bring your camera!

You can also find an Ecological Experience Center walking course on the coastal road. The observation deck built midway along the walking course is a convenient place to rest and enjoy the view. Walk along the Sinchang Windmill Coastal Road and leave with many pleasant memories, and of course a  photo or two!

The scenery of setting sun at this volcanic cone is comparable to the view of the sunset at Sarabong Volcanic Cone. At the observatory located at the peak of Suwolbong Peak, visitors can see Chagwido Island, Songaksan Mountain, Dansan Mountain, and Jukdo Island in one glance, and can even observe Sarabong with binoculars. Suwolbong holds a legend called Nokdumul that tells of a story of a brother and sister’s love for their parents. According to the legend, the siblings, Nokgo and Suwol, were collecting 100 different herbs to cure their mother’s sickness, but weren’t able to find the last herb, Acanthopanax senticosus. When they learned that the last herb grew on Suwolbong Peak’s cliff, Suwol, the sister, climbed the cliff to harvest it.

The Yongmeori Coast got its name because the beach looks like a dragon that is jumping into the ocean with its head raised (“Yong” means dragon and “Meori” means head in Korean).Yongmeori is a sandstone bed created by layers of sand that have been deposited for tens of millions of years. The mysterious scenery of the coast is enough to make anyone who witnesses it exclaim in wonder.At the foot of the coast is a Hamel Monument. This monument was established by the Embassy of the Netherlands and the Korean Foundation on April 1st, 1980 to strengthen the diplomatic ties between Korean and the Netherlands, as well as to commemorate the dedication and hard work of Hendrick Hamel

Sagye Beach is a combination of rocks and beaches formed by volcanic activity. It is a famous photo spot in Jeju.

Consisting of a cinder cone in the middle of the crater and its tuff ring, Songaksan Mountain’s peak, which can also be considered as its mouth, has a depth of 69m and has completely preserved its active form.While it was previously unknown to visitors outside of those with archaeological reasons, recently it has become part of a well-known tour course and now many narrow paths lead to it.Songaksan Mountain was used as Japan’s forward operating base during its invasion of China, the last line of defense during the final hours of WWII. Ruins of airfields, hangars, and anti-aircraft artillery are scattered throughout, with 15 coastal trenches below the coastal cliff, four or five of which have naturally decomposed and pose falling hazards.

Stop 6
