Why go

Guryongpo Beach is a Korean East Sea beach in Pohang's Guryongpo area, with fine sand, surrounding pine forest, and views toward the open sea. The beach is in the same area as Guryongpo's famous colonial-era heritage district (Japanese-resident streets). For travelers visiting Pohang's Guryongpo area for heritage and wanting a coastal counterpart, Guryongpo Beach is one of the cleaner small single picks. Pair with Guryongpo Modern History Museum.
