About
Hwasun Geummorae Beach is a black-sand beach surrounded by natural scenery. Beside it, the wide Sogeummak Beach stretches out, with Sanbangsan Mountain behind and Gapado, Marado, and Hyeongjeseom visible offshore, evoking an East Asian ink landscape painting. The black sand is soft and fine, and in summer an outdoor swimming pool is set up right beside the beach, allowing both sea and freshwater swimming. The pool uses cool spring water that stays at a low temperature year-round and has slides and other equipment for children. The beach is in Hwasun-ri, the seat of Andeok-myeon, so transportation, lodging, shops, and restaurants are nearby.
