Yurim Beach, in Deokchon-ri, Samsan-myeon, lies on the West Island of Geomundo, so it is quiet and uncrowded. It is a small beach about 200 to 300 m long and 20 m wide, with shallow water, fine golden sand, and warm water that make it good for swimming. From the cliff near the Geomundo Lighthouse, visitors can see the open sea and the sunrise and sunset. A hike through the camellia forest from the beach to Mongneomeo-jae, Borobong, and Sinseonbawi is also a highlight. Ferries from Yeosu take about two hours to reach Geomundo.
