About
Ujeon Beach stretches 4 kilometers in length on the southwestern coast of the island of Jeungdo, the biggest natural salt producer in Korea. The silvery white sand as well as the view of the sealine dotted with over 90 deserted islands make Ujeon Beach one of the most attractive seaside destinations. Clean waters and pine tree forest provide perfect shade for summer visitors. The beach is rich with germanium, holding Germanium Festival every summer.
