Jeju Island Loop: Southwest & East Coast 4-Day Self-Drive Itinerary
A counter-clockwise self-drive road trip around Jeju, featuring west coast tea fields, southern waterfalls, Seongsan Ilchulbong, and Udo Island.
Drive counter-clockwise from the airport, staying in Seogwipo and Seongsan to minimize backtracking and long daily drives. Staying in Seongsan on the third night allows you to wake up early for the sunrise or catch an early ferry to Udo Island. This itinerary is ideal for couples and families visiting the island for the first time. It does not include hiking to the summit of Mount Hallasan; if you wish to climb it, add an extra day and book your slot in advance on the official website. Note that coastal areas and Udo ferry schedules can be affected by strong winds, so keep your schedule flexible.
Canola flowers bloom from March to April. Summer brings frequent typhoons, while autumn offers the most stable weather.
