About

Sageunjin Beach is a small beach in Annyeon-dong with a sand beach 600 m long and 24,000 m², adjoining Gyeongpo Beach. The name is said to mean the ferry where a pottery peddler settled and lived, earning a living by selling pottery and catching fish from a small boat. Nearby are clean lodgings and facilities such as changing rooms, water taps and parasols. The wide beach and pine forest form beautiful scenery, and the clear blue water and tidy accommodations draw visitors.
