About
Sangju Eunmorae Beach has fine, silvery sand and a wide shore backed by dense pine forest, with Geumsan's scenic cliffs forming a long folding-screen backdrop. Located 21 km south of Namhae-eup, it is one of the few beaches in Korea with such natural beauty and draws many summer visitors who enjoy the soft sand underfoot. Its half-moon-shaped sand stretches about 2 km with a gentle slope and warm water, making it ideal for families. Summer festivals and a winter sunrise festival are held here, and visitors can enjoy traditional vegetable hot dogs found only here, a café popular on social media, and local restaurants.
