With three sides of the country surrounded by water, the coast is an important part of travelling around Korea.
From the busy beaches of Busan to quieter coastal towns, every area has its own atmosphere.
You can walk along the shore, visit a seaside temple, take a boat out on the water, or simply stop to enjoy the view.
The coastline also offers a different perspective on Korea. Instead of busy streets and tall buildings, you get open water, fishing villages and dramatic cliffs.
Busan is one of the most popular places to experience Korea by the sea, but it is far from the only one.
Sometimes, a change of scenery is all you need.
And in Korea, the sea is never too far away. 🌊☀️
