Why go

Geoje Haegeumgang is a famous coastal-rock-formation cluster on Geoje Island's southern coast, set on a small offshore island just off Hakdong Beach as one of the most-cited landscape destinations on Geoje. The site features dramatic eroded volcanic-rock cliff formations rising directly from the South Sea, with the rock cluster's distinctive vertical-and-jagged forms creating one of Korea's most-photographed coastal landscapes. Visitors typically view Haegeumgang from the surrounding tour boats that depart from nearby ports — boats circle the rock cluster and sometimes pass through the famous "Sipja Cave" (cross-shaped sea cave) within the formation. The combination of the dramatic rock cluster, the surrounding South Sea landscape, and the boat-tour viewing experience makes Haegeumgang one of Geoje's signature destinations. Pairs with Windy Hill and Oedo Botania for a southern Geoje day.
