Why go

Gaedo is a small island in the West Sea off Korea's southwestern coast, accessible by short ferry. The island has working fishing-village life, traditional architecture, mudflats, and quiet coastal paths. As with other small Korean West Sea islands, Gaedo offers a slow-travel destination away from mainstream tourism. For travelers serious about Korean small-island culture and willing to commit a half-day to overnight stay, Gaedo is one of the cleaner small single picks. Best treated as a slow-travel single-island stop.
