Why go

Hakampo Beach sits within Taean Haean National Park on the western coast of South Korea's Chungcheongnam-do province. The beach is known for its relatively shallow, calm waters and a broad stretch of white sand, making it accessible for families and casual swimmers. A dense pine forest lines the rear of the beach, providing natural shade and a popular camping ground. The surrounding coastal wetlands and rock formations attract visitors interested in natural scenery beyond the shoreline. Being inside a national park, the area maintains cleaner-than-average coastal conditions and offers marked walking trails connecting to nearby coves.
