No matter when you visit, Jeju Island offers unchangingly beautiful scenery.
I think it might be a domestic travel destination.
But the time allowed for us is not that long.
We have selected a course that allows you to look around only the core. Enjoy a trip to Jeju filled with healing and contemplation.

Woljeongri Beach & Cafe Street – Bijarim – Darangshi Oreum
Woljeong-ri Cafe Street
Woljeong-ri, a lyrical seaside village with the meaning of ‘the moon stays’.

In addition, there are sensuous cafes, restaurants, and leisure facilities along the beach. This makes it a good place to take a break.
In particular, Woljeongni Beach is popular with surfers because waves of a certain height keep hitting.
It is also a part of Olle Trail 20 course, so it is a popular eastern attraction for travelers.
