Gwangalli Beach

Located to the west of Haeundae Beach, Gwangalli Beach is 1.4 kilometers long and 25~110 meters wide, and is famous for its fine sand. The area underwent a water purification process, which led the ecosystem to flourish in the nearby river waters. In addition to the beachfront, the Gwangalli area is filled with delicious restaurants and romantic cafes, as well as stores selling famous fashion brands. The area has plenty to offer, but many people come in the evening to take in the bright lights of Gwangandaegyo Bridge, stretching across the horizon. Official location: 219 Gwanganhaebyeon-ro, Suyeong-gu, Busan. Visiting hours: Open 24 hr. Closure information: N/A (Open all year round). Parking: Available (300 won for every 10 minutes). Information contact: +82-51-622-4251. Suyeong-gu's official tourism page also places a permanent outdoor stage, waterfront and beach parks, a youth center, and a marine-leisure center around the beach, so the shoreline functions as an urban recreation district rather than only a swimming area.
