See the first sunrise of the year at Jeongdongjin Beach

Jeongdongjin Beach is known as one of the earliest places on the Korean Peninsula to see the sunrise. With no islands or rocks in the way, the horizon is wide open and you can watch the first light of the new year rise over the sea. The itinerary allows about 3.5 hours here. This stop belongs to the Jeongdongjin Beach sunrise option.

Watch the sunrise with a temple view at Naksansa

Look out over the dawn sea of the East Sea from Naksan Beach and Naksansa Temple. The temple's centuries-old stone walls and coastal pavilion frame the horizon, giving a quiet atmosphere that differs from an open beach. The itinerary allows about 3.5 hours here.
