Details
A 1.4km sandy beach lined with independent cafés, bars, and seafood restaurants — hipper and less crowded than Haeundae. The landmark Gwangan Bridge (광안대교) stretches 7.4km across the bay and lights up nightly. Arrive at sunset and stay through the bridge lighting (around 20:00). Foreign cards accepted everywhere along the strip. The beach itself is free; parking is limited, so the subway is recommended.
