Bangjukpo Beach is a small cove on the east coast of Dolsando, about 150 m long and 30 m wide. During the Joseon period, the area was enclosed by a dike to create reclaimed land and planted with windbreak forest, and the sand that accumulated there became a beach. Waves are gentle and the water is shallow with a low slope, making it suitable for families. The surrounding waters are also known for sea fishing, including eel, sea bream, and rock greenling. About 150 pine trees over 200 years old form a shaded forest, and parking, restrooms, and other facilities are available.
