Hyeopjae Beach
협재해수욕장
The most popular beach on Jeju's west coast, with white sand and emerald shallows facing the volcanic islet of Biyangdo, and spectacular sunsets.
Hyeopjae Beach has white sand formed from shell fragments. Its shallow, clear water shades from light green to deep blue. Directly in front is the volcanic islet of Biyangdo, and in the evening the sun sets behind the island. Next door, Geumneung Beach is less crowded, and the pine forest behind the beach allows camping and picnicking. Admission is free, and during the swimming season (about late June to August) there are lifeguards. From Jeju city, take the 202 bus for about 1 hour. Next door is Hallim Park, so you can plan both on the same day as part of a western route itinerary.
