Jeongam Beach, in Jeongam 1-ri, Gangyeon-myeon, Yangyang-gun, sits along National Route 7. A walking path and a bicycle lane run along the shore. The beach has soft sand mixed with some pebbles, clear water and a gentle slope, so it is mainly visited by family travelers. Cafes with sea views are right in front of the beach. Behind the sand, a thick pine forest allows pine-grove camping. In peak summer, a village women's association runs a local food restaurant and a farm-produce shop on one side of the beach, serving local chicken, potato pancakes and acorn jelly. Nearby are Naksansa Temple, Hujin Port and Mulchi Port.
