Jangyo Beach is located in Jangyo-ri, Hyeonbuk-myeon, Yangyang County, between 38 Beach and Bukbunri Beach along Route 7. Unlike other East Coast beaches, it is little known, so it remains quiet. Facilities include showers, changing rooms, restrooms, water supply, a shop, parasol rental, and free parking. Each summer a beach festival offers clam digging, treasure hunts, tug-of-war, and banana boat rides. A campsite lies among the pine trees, and Gisamun Port and Hajodae unmanned lighthouse are nearby.
