Beyond the Anmyeondo connecting bridge and about 4 km to the southwest lies Baeksajang Port, and near it is a white-sand beach. Its silver sand stretches far along the shore, and at low tide the beach extends to the horizon. The tidal range is large, but the beach is safe and the water temperature is pleasant, so swimming can be enjoyed into late summer. The beach is about 1.2 km long and 300 m wide, made of fine silica sand. Between it and Sambong Beach, wild king prawns (daeha) are famous, and in autumn the prawn season draws crowds from across the country, with a prawn festival held each year.
