Aewol Handam Coastal Walk
한담해안산책로
A coastal path of about 1.2 km next to Aewol's café street, where black volcanic rock and blue-green water make for beautiful sunsets.
The Handam Coastal Walk links Handam in Aewol-eup with Gwakji Beach, covering about 1.2 km along shoreline lined with lava rock. Along the way you can see clear shallow waters, tidal pools among the rocks, and haenyeo (Jeju women divers) at work. Near the starting point, Aewol Café Street is lined with seaside cafés and bakeries. The classic route is to walk the path at sunset and then return to a café. Admission is free. Parts of the path are paved with stones that become slippery in the rain, and parking along the road is limited. It is about a 30-minute drive from Jeju Airport.
