Jeongbang Falls

정방폭포

A rare waterfall in Korea that falls directly into the sea. From the rocky shore, you look up at a 23-meter white torrent plunging into the waves.

Jeongbang Falls is about 23 meters high and drops directly from a coastal cliff into the sea. It is known as one of the rare “waterfalls into the ocean” in East Asia, and together with Cheonjiyeon and Cheonjeyeon it forms the three great waterfalls of Jeju. From the ticket office, go down the steps to the black rocky beach by the sea, where you can feel the spray up close. The stones are slippery, so watch your footing. The cliff bears an inscription referring to the legend of Seo-si (Xu Fu) passing through here. Admission is about 2,000 won. Opening hours are about 09:00 to 18:00. It is about a 5-minute drive from Cheonjiyeon Falls.
