The whole journey, there is no rush, only slow down, to feel, to discover every scene of Jeju Island.
The Trendiest Pub! The Cliff Jeju.
A hot spot in Jeju Island for both food and drinks!
The Cliff is an outdoor pub where you can enjoy the scenery.
Sipping a cup of coffee while gazing at the sea is pure art.
If you visit Jeju Island on a nice day, we highly recommend stopping by The Cliff!

🇰🇷 The Romantic Legend of Cheonjeyeon Waterfalls 📍Jeju Island
Cheonjeyeon Waterfalls, located on Jeju Island in South Korea, is not only a stunning natural wonder but also steeped in local mythology, particularly a romantic love story involving the nymphs (known as "seonnyeo" in Korean). The site has become a romantic spot for couples visiting Jeju Island, drawn by the beauty and the poignant love story connected to it.
The legend tied to Cheonjeyeon Waterfalls on Jeju Island tells of seven heavenly nymphs who descended to bathe in the waterfall's pristine waters. A mortal man, enchanted by one of the nymphs, secretly watched her daily. Eventually, he revealed his love, but their romance was doomed as the nymph had to return to the heavens. Heartbroken, the man spent the rest of his life near the falls, longing for her return. His tears are said to contribute to the waterfall's flow today.

I recommend the Ark Church in Jeju Island, inspired by Noah's Ark.
World-renowned architect Itami Jun designed the Ark Church, drawing inspiration from Noah's Ark.
The Ark Church is located in Andeok-myeon, on the west side of Jeju Island! There are many attractions nearby, making it a perfect stop for those traveling along the western route. 👍
The shimmering roof is a particularly impressive feature of the architecture. The reason the roof shines is due to the use of a material called zinc.
Address: 113, Sanrok Nam-ro 762beon-gil, Seogwipo-si, Jeju.
🇰🇷 Rugged Cliffs at Seopjikoji, Jeju Island
Seopjikoji is a picturesque and popular coastal area located on the eastern shore of Jeju Island, South Korea. The area is famous for its unique geological formations, including rugged cliffs made of volcanic rock that drop steeply into the sea. The combination of green fields, dark rocks, and the blue ocean creates a striking landscape. The attraction offers well-maintained walking trails that allow visitors to explore the cliffs and coastline. The trails are relatively easy and offer fantastic views at every turn.

Asia 1st Submarine in Seogwipo Jeju island
#koreatrip #travelanywhere
Went for my first submarine trip in Korea!
When it opened in 1988, Seogwipo Submarine was the first of its kind in Asia the third in the world.
The tourism submarine Jiah can holds 67 people,including 2 crews. Built in Finland in July 2013, it is the world’s largest tourism submarine in the world.
As we go down the sea, we can see colorful coral reefs, colorful schools of fish, and rich seaweed.
The exquisite landscape makes it one of the most beautiful places to dive as well. Going deep into the 40 meter sea-bed, we can also see diver feeding of fishes and a surreal-looking shipwreck with schools of fish surrounding it. Over 20 years of technical knowhow and safe operation make Seogwipo Submarine a must-see attraction on Jeju Island.

Top 3 waterfall in Jeju island 🇰🇷 Jeongbang Waterfall
#waterfalls
When it comes to the most beautiful waterfalls on Jeju Island, the Jeongbang Waterfall is on top of the list.
Jeongbang is a stunning waterfall located on the southern coast of Jeju Island, where the water falls off a cliffside and into the sea down below.
It is the only waterfall in South Korea (and some say all of Asia) that cascades directly into the sea.
The Jeongbang Waterfall is located just 15 minutes away from the city center of Seogwipo.
Address: 278 Donghong-dong, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do, South Korea.

🇰🇷 Resort with Ocean View on Jeju Island
We had a pleasant stay at Sun and Moon Resort located in a quiet small town by the beach at the southwest corner of Jeju Island. The resort is just 1 minute walk to Sagye beach. There are also a few restaurants and a convenient shop within walking distance from the resort.
All the rooms in the resort have floor-to-ceiling windows which offer a good view of the ocean. Our room was huge and clean equipped with a small kitchen. There is a huge lawn area facing the beach with lawn chairs. I enjoyed chilling on one of the chairs at night while having a drink. A simple breakfast was served at about 8 am in our room.

Hallasan National Park @ Jeju 🇰🇷
#koreatrip
Hiking Hallasan National Park in Jeju is an incredible experience, offering diverse trails that cater to different fitness levels.
The Seongpanak Trail, one of the most popular routes, stretches 9.7 km and is relatively gentle, making it accessible for most hikers. Along the way, there are several rest areas and breathtaking views of Jeju Island from various platforms. Alternatively, the Yeongsil Trail is shorter at 5.8 km, featuring scenic ridges and waterfalls.
Whichever trail you choose, the stunning natural beauty and well-maintained paths make Hallasan a must-visit for outdoor enthusiasts. Highly recommended not for the faint hearted!
My rating: 4 ⭐️ out of 5!

🌈 Recommended 3-day 2-night itinerary for Jeju Island
Day-1️⃣: Airport-➡️ Hyeopjae Beach➡️ Woljeongri
Day-2️⃣: Seongsan Ilchulbong➡️ Udo➡️ Sopjikoji
Day-3️⃣: Jeju City➡️ Aewol-eup
.
📸 Must-visit spots in Jeju Island
1️⃣ Seongsan Ilchulbong
To see the sunrise at Seongsan Ilchulbong, I stayed nearby on purpose
In the early morning, walking towards the peak along the seaside canola flowers, watching the sun rise bit by bit from the sea
The classic seaside boardwalk spot doesn't require an entrance fee, and it's less crowded in the morning, so you can take photos freely
2️⃣ Hyeopjae Beach
I stayed in Hyeopjae for two nights this time, and I want to stay here again next time I come to Jeju Island
The endless jelly sea is really super beautiful!!
The row of hotels by the beach, with an average of 100+ you can have! The cost-performance ratio is maxed out!
3️⃣ Woljeongri Beach
It's a half-hour bus ride from Hyeopjae Beach to Woljeongri, a beach full of windmills
The row of coffee shops by the beach, each one is full of design sense!
Of course, almost everyone will go to 【mou moon cafe】 to check in
4️⃣ Udo
Believe me, if the weather is good, you really need to spend a whole day on Udo!!
The round-trip ferry costs ten thousand Korean won, accompanied by seagulls all the way
Rent an electric-assist bicycle for another ten thousand Korean won, and cycle around the island
Every frame is really a photo of life!
5️⃣ Aewol-eup Resort
The Aewol-eup beach on the west line is a must-visit, not far from the city center and the airport
The jelly sea here is really shocking even on cloudy days!
You can also experience paddling a glass boat on the sea, which is really unbeatably romantic!
6️⃣ Lazy pump
This cafe in Aewol-eup really epitomizes the Korean-style ruin atmosphere
On the way there, you always feel, why is it so desolate?
But once you arrive, you find that the design sense and scenery composition are too perfect!

🚌 You can take buses all over Jeju Island, but you need to allow enough time, often just waiting can take more than half an hour
💰 The common payment methods are still visa/master, many small shops and non-internet-famous shops don't support UnionPay and zfb, vx much

🚗 If you are in a group, taking a taxi or chartering a car in Jeju Island is convenient and cost-effective, especially when going to some remote attractions or rushing the itinerary
Peak Adventures: Unwind and Conquer
#cherryblossom2024
The hike was truly remarkable, albeit somewhat taxing. I highly recommend embarking before 10 am to prevent the need for hurried ascent, as we experienced. The summit boasted awe-inspiring vistas, and it's advisable to pack some provisions to savor alongside the scenery. Consider reserving this itinerary for the final day of your journey, as it promises to be quite exhausting and necessitate ample recovery time.

Life advice: For your first trip abroad with a child, Jeju Island is really a great choice
If we're talking about visa-free islands, Jeju Island definitely deserves a mention. It's affordable, close to home, and just over an hour's flight away, you can enjoy the jelly-like sea!
Jeju Island is very suitable for family trips. There's no need for exhausting travel, and there are often special deals on flights. Let me recommend a few places that I particularly like, where walking with kids is easy and fun—
·
1️⃣ Udo Island: A great place to exercise with kids. Get off the boat and rent an electric bike right away. My child and I each had a bike, and we spent half a day touring Udo Island, checked in at the lighthouse, had sea salt ice cream, and walked on the beach. Remember to take the shortcut towards Seongsan Ilchulbong when you leave Udo Island; the sunset at Seongsan is just too beautiful.
2️⃣ Seongsan Ilchulbong: It's a place I must visit every time I go to Jeju! Whether it's for the sunrise or the sunset, it's worth seeing. I usually stay near Seongsan Ilchulbong, which also makes it convenient to go to Udo Island and Ssangyong.
3️⃣ Ssangyong: Tadao Ando's architecture is a must-see, and the cafe downstairs is worth a try. The occasional path in Ssangyong is also worth a walk, and friends with kids can also visit the largest aquarium in Asia.
4️⃣ Sanjun Buli: It's simply a holy place for Korean drama heroines! The entire hilltop reed field is too romantic—
5️⃣ Yeongmonth: A popular coastline on the west line, many trendy restaurants and cafes are worth trying. The downside is that it's crowded, but the upside is that it's really photogenic, and every shop is decorated with heart.
·
Jeju's buses run at long intervals, and the attractions are scattered. Friends with an international driving permit can try renting a car for a self-drive tour. If you want to enjoy the classic east and west lines on a free trip, you still need a car and a guide.
Not Iceland! It’s South Korea!
Upset about rainy weather, but amazed after seeing this!
If you visit Jeju island in South Korea, don’t miss its East. The Sunrise peak was formed 7000 years ago by a volcanic eruption!🌋🙈
And now you can walk around black lava rocks and view this astonishing beauty!
Foggy weather made it even more mistique and distinct from other tourists pics.
And how about that Starbucks? The best view from the cafe ever! Also try the black sesame latte and special Jeju matcha.

As I mentioned before my top 3 destinations within Korea 📝, here is by far my number one 🪙 !
📍 Jeju Island (year round, plane tickets are quite cheap from Gimpo airport ✈️)
I had dreamt to go to Jeju for many years but even though I traveled a few times to Korea, I had never been before. so when the opportunity to go with a friend came, we jumped into it !
💡 have your international driving licence and rent a car ! or then travel by taxi if you prefer but the convenience of having a car is amazing there.
Jeju might look like a big island but it is, without being. you can easily travel from one side to the other within a few hours, which make it super easy to travel around and discover new places. 🏝
On the pictures are one of my favourite place, which is Seongsan Ilchulbong. It's a hard 30/40 stairs hike, but it's worth the view ! ⛰️
🔥 tip for vegetarian, I've actually found a lot of vegetarian and vegan options to eat around the island. I thought it was important to point it out !
I'm hoping in 2024, I'll be able to go back to this beautiful place 💕
I plan on posting more about Jeju soon !

Three days and two nights in Jeju Island
Jeju Island in the off-season is a paradise for self-healing
This time I stayed in Yayue Village
A place where you can see the sea and the lighthouse when you open the window
The day I arrived, my hat flew off as soon as I got out of the taxi without any precautions
Put down my luggage and take a walk nearby
The wind is so strong that I walk two meters and retreat three meters
Decided to eat barbecue in the nearest restaurant
After eating, I went back to the hotel and took a rest
Took the bus to Ilchul Peak to watch the sunset
Hahaha, yes, watching the sunset at Ilchul Peak
The wind was a bit smaller at this time
The weather is not so cold, very comfortable
Came when it was about to close, few people, equivalent to a private booking
In the evening, I went to a popular restaurant that is the same as the one in the love series
The dishes are indeed very fresh and the prices are quite affordable
The lobster ramen can be said to be the ramen of my life
So fresh that it's amazing!
The next day I slept until I woke up naturally, it was a cloudy day
There is sun, but not much
Find a coffee shop nearby and have a beautiful breakfast
Why say it's beautiful, it's literal
Beautiful scenery, beautiful food
Then I took the bus to the pier
Boarded the ship to Udo
Wow, the scenery is really good
Without an international driver's license, I could only rent an electric bicycle
It's not bad, it's not tiring at all
But we sat down at the first beach
Never got up again until the return trip
The dong of the jelly sea is the dong of heart
The seawater is really like jelly, duangduang
Sitting on the beach eating a fish cake
The soup base is actually made of kelp, another little surprise
In the evening, I went to the same barbecue omakase as the love series
The meat quality is definitely not as good as the one I ate the day before
The main thing is to experience the different tastes of different parts of the pig's body
The service is excellent, just open your mouth all the way
On the third day, I still slept until I woke up naturally
Went directly to Xiaocai Beach to eat at the same restaurant as Gong Liu and Lee Dong Wook
The seafood pancake is fragrant and crispy, very, very delicious
Other dishes did not leave a stunning feeling
Although it rained heavily this day
But the transparency of Xiaocai Beach is not inferior to Udo
I also met a magpie during the walk
This place is so comfortable, I want to stay for a few days next time
The camellias of Jeju Island are in full bloom in December, a winter limited edition
🌺Go to Jeju Island to enjoy the winter limited edition camellias, greenhouse hydrangeas, and rapeseed flowers!!! The camellias in Seogwipo are in their blooming season, so beautiful! The garden is filled with the fragrance of flowers, intoxicated in the world of flower sea, you must come to take pictures in winter, it's very beautiful from December, and you can see Hallasan behind the rapeseed flowers!
🌺: Hueree Natural Park

Hueree Natural Life Park
🇰🇷 Sunset spot opposite Viewst Cafe
Welcome to the Sa Gye beach and this is he best spot for sunset which is right infront of Viewst cafe. It is also a trend to wear the jeju tangerine which is the hallabong hat. You can get them easily from the convenience stores and wear it in Jeju. There is no proper foot paths at the beach so you have to climb over rocks to get across and there are gaps in between too. So be extra careful and leave before the skies get too dark. The roads here are two-way streets and parking on the side of the roads are illegal unless you can find the street side parking.

🇰🇷 Sanbangsan Yongmeori Geo Trail
In Jeju there are many hiking trails and some of these trails are not so easy. If you are just starting out then better stick with the amateur trail. I am not so adventurous in hiking so I only do the easy trail like Sanbangsan Yongmeori Geo Trail. A nice trail to hike in a windy weather and I also get to find many nice spots with Sanbangsan mountain. This trail is also right beside the sea and there are proper benches at the resting stops. You can come back to Jeju and try out other hiking trail and join the ahjussi and ahjumma.

🇰🇷 Innisfree Jeju House
This is the highlight for my trip which is to buy the value price for Innisfree products with tax refund. The is the retail and experience zone at Innisfree at the tea museum. They also conduct art lessons like the soap kit whereby you will buy a set of soap kit and you can join in the class to decorate your soap. All the colouring stationery will be provided. The staff will also be around to guide you. You can grab some post cards and do stamping at the stamp zone. If the postcards are out of stock then you can wait for the next hour. A great way to collect souvenirs at Innisfree.
