Located 200 m north of Sampo Beach, the beach sits along National Route 7, so visitors can step directly onto the sand. Developed in 1997 from undeveloped coastline, it was created to provide new homes for residents affected by the Goseong forest fire. In summer, it fills with people enjoying surfing, canoeing, and other marine sports. The sand has various sculptures and photo spots. Nearby attractions include the Bongsudae Auto Camping Ground, the Haeswimteo rest area, and the Oho VR Marine Adventure Hall.
