Seogwipo Essentials

Seogwipo’s southern coast is defined by its dramatic volcanic geography and deep cultural roots. This selection features Jeongbang Waterfall, one of the few in Asia to plunge directly into the ocean, and the 20-meter volcanic pillar of Oedolgae. The list covers the city's artistic history at Lee Jung Seop Park and the bustling Seogwipomaeil Olle Market, known for local Hallabong citrus. From the natural snorkeling pools of Seonnyeotang to the legend of Seobok at the coastal exhibition hall, these sites represent the core identity of Jeju’s second-largest city.
