Course Overview
The southeastern coastal road from Pyoseon to Namwon is one of Jeju's most peaceful drives. With far fewer tourists than Jungmun or Seongsan, this route offers an authentic taste of Jeju's serene countryside atmosphere.
Starting from the wide white sands of Pyoseon Haevichi Beach and passing through charming fishing villages, the drive to Namwon Port immerses you in a landscape where stone walls, fields, and the sea blend seamlessly.
