Gureopdo is called the Galapagos of Korea and is an unspoiled, mysterious island that many Koreans praise as a place to visit at least once. Its tourist sites include Gureop Beach and a pier, but with fewer than 20 residents the island has almost no convenience facilities. Most of the island is mountainous, so its natural atmosphere is strong and its scenery remains intact. Light pollution is minimal, so the Milky Way can be seen clearly on summer nights, and campers gather around Gaemeori Hill. The island has two beaches, Gureop Beach and Mokgimi Beach.
