About

Located 13km away from Tongyeonghang Port, Bijindo Island forms a unique topography resembling a giant hourglass or dumbbell, as Anseom and Bakkatseom are connected by a long 300m sandbar. Located on this sandbar, Bijindo Beach is a mysterious double-sided beach where a calm white sand beach on the west and a pebble beach on the east coexist, allowing you to enjoy both the sunrise and sunset from a single spot. Walking along Sanhogil, the core exploration trail of the island, you can encounter beautiful natural sceneries including a 100-year-old black pine forest, a natural habitat of Fatsia japonica designated as a Natural Monument, Miin Observatory offering a panoramic view of Dadohae, and Seonyubong Peak.
