Baekdo Beach is a quiet, white sandy beach located north of Sokcho. The area around the beach features splendid natural landscapes including unique rock formations and lush forests of pine trees. The beach is in a crescent shape, with a red lighthouse standing on the righthand point. The shallow and clean waters make this popular among families. Official location: 78 Baekdohaebyeon-gil, Jugwang-myeon, Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do. Parking: Available (approximately 100 small vehicles)- Only one vehicle allowed per campsite in the auto camping site- Camping trailers not allowed due to limited parking space. Plan this visit using the official information above as the baseline. Operating hours, admission conditions, programs, access rules, and parking arrangements can change after this review, so confirm the latest notice on the linked official website before departure.
