Attraction Introduction: The Whisper of Paradise Corner
Hamdeok Seoubong Beach, a place with a hint of saltiness in its name, is famous for its crystal-clear water and silky sands. Unlike other bustling beaches, Hamdeok retains a rare tranquility and simplicity. Standing on the shore, you are faced with the boundless blue waves, with lush pine forests behind you, and every breath seems to be filled with negative ions, cleansing the dust of the city.

my favorite place in Jeju amazing view nice white sand and very clear water beach
A really lovely beach in Jeju. The water is clean and clear enough. It's a nice turquoise blue. It can get crowded but it didn't feel overrun. During low tide the water does get really low and you can walk out quite far into the sea. Also during low tide other beaches are formed that would disappear during high tide.
Almost all the beach fells amazing but it’s an exception it’s just wonderful. The children in the beach and the environment is excellent. Great place to be in the free time if you are in Jeju city. I want to visit the place again if I get chance .
Jeju Island The beach is very awkward. I really like the Xiande Bathing Beach. The water is clear and the salad is young. The beach is very long. The facilities are perfect. There are many parking spaces. There are many restaurants nearby. There are many choices. There are hotels. When I went in August 2018, there were not many people. There were no large water activities here. Suitable for bringing children, really recommend!
Mid November climate still mild, day time quite, you can enjoy nice black pork meet bbq, at night you can relax at some coffee shop...
