Batgae Beach is about ten minutes by car from the Anmyeon-do Bridge and is one of the beautiful beaches on the west coast. It is quite large for a lesser-known beach, with very good water quality and a gentle shore that is ideal for swimming. The beach is 3.4 km long and 250 m wide, with a silica sand surface, and sand dunes curve around the shore, where shellfish and seaweed live, making it a good place for children to learn about the sea. Guesthouses line the access road, and a pine forest between them and the beach offers safe, cool camping, with nearby beaches such as Sambong, Gijipo, Anmyeon, and Dueo and the Anmyeondo Natural Recreation Forest also worth a visit.
