About

Daemado Island, part of Jodo-myeon in Jindo County, was named for its shape, which is said to resemble a large horse, and was also called Daemari before it became Daemado-ri in the 1914 reorganization of administrative districts. Its coastline stretches about 14.5 km, with rocky shores and sea cliffs that have formed sea caves. The mild maritime climate supports pine windbreak forests behind the beaches. The island keeps the atmosphere of a fishing village, and its natural beauty makes it a good stop on a trip to Jindo.
