A curved beach a short way east of Haeundae. The waves are mellow, so beginners flock here, and you'll see boards on the sand even in midwinter. Surf schools and small cafés line the front. Climb through the pines of Jukdo Park at one end to a little pavilion and the whole bay opens below you. It's far calmer than Haeundae, a fine spot to stare at the sea.
