About

Saryangdo Island, located in the southern sea of Tongyeong-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, is a beautiful island where two large islands, Sangdo Island and Hado Island, are connected by the Saryangdaegyo Bridge. Its name originates from the shape of the strait, which meanders like a snake. It has a deep history, serving as a naval strategic point since the Goryeo dynasty and housing the Choi Yeong Janggun Sadang Shrine.

Trekking along the bizarre rock ridge centered around Jirimangsan, where you can reportedly see Jirisan on the mainland on a clear day, is considered a specialty. From the suspension bridge in the Ongnyeobong Peak section and the dizzying rock ridge, you can take in the superb view of Dadohae at a glance. In addition to hiking, you can simultaneously experience the charms of the mountain and the sea, such as walking along the coastal trail and relaxing at Daehang Beach.
