About

Gageo Island lies 136 km from Mokpo, and the ferry trip takes as long as four and a half hours. As its name suggests, a place worth living in, time spent on the island feels like a special experience. Its sights are best explored on foot, including hiking trails leading to Doksilsan, the Hoeryongsan viewpoint over Gageo Port and Daeri Village, the coastal road linking Daeri and Hangni, and Seomdeung Peninsula with Gageo Lighthouse.
