Getting to the start
Jeju Airport
제주공항
Public transport here is genuinely awkward. Allow extra time.
Take a westbound express bus from Jeju Airport to the Sanbangsan stop, then walk about ten minutes to the ticket office; Sanbangsan and the Yongmeori coast sit together. It closes frequently with the tide and swell, so check before you set out. If it is shut, Sanbangsan itself is what is left.

Yongmeori Coast
Andeok / Sanbangsan · 1h 20mA narrow path threads along tuff cliffs that run into the sea below Sanbangsan. This is Jeju's oldest volcanic formation, its layered sediment standing up like a wall. It closes often, depending on tide and swell, so check whether it is open before making the trip.

Good to do next
- Hyeopjae Beach, JejuHallim, Jeju · Half day
Crushed shell in the sand turns the water emerald, with the island of Biyangdo square on the horizon. Shallow enough to wade a long way out.
- Seogwipo Falls & the Lava CliffSeogwipo, Jeju · Half day
A waterfall you reach on foot from town, and a cliff of hexagonal columns where lava met the sea. On Jeju's south coast this is the pairing with the least walking.
- Dongmun Market Half-DayJeju City · Half day
The island's biggest permanent market, close enough to the airport to fit into an arrival or departure day.
