Jeju or Seogwipo - Hallim - Gosan - Jungmun - Jeju (L) 130km
Meet your guide upon pick up in your hotel and enjoy a full day exploring fascinating culture and natural wonders of Jeju. Enjoy a short stop at Hyeopjae beach. This beach is perhaps among the most beautiful. It is covered with fine and soft glistening white sands, offset by deep blue colored outcroppings which jut out into the turquoise water.

Hallim Park is a subtropical botanical garden that is strongly scented with exotic sentiment. Every turn brings new surprises. You cannot miss out two unusual caves, one has both stalactites and stalagmites in it while the other is the only spot in the world that is actually a cave within a cave..

Weather works out, enjoy a short hiking at Suwolbong, a 77-meter high tuff ring of pyroclastic deposits, giving off a feel of tranquility and peacefulness. You would be immediately awed by the unspoiled nature and breath-taking view of the surrounding areas, which include numerous smaller islands and sediments. You will find a greater historical significance, as well as an educational purpose for geologists. Suwolbong also holds a sad legend of Nokgo and Suwol. The trekking is cancelled in case of bad weather, then tour substitues with O"sulloc Tea Museum.

Surrounded by rows of neat tea plantations, this environment-friendly tea gallery displays tea cups, tea pots and the history of O'sulloc's superior green tea. Together with a souvenir shop and a cafe, it makes for a quaint place to sit and enjoy some green tea and a variety of tea rolled cakes, green tea lattes, cookies, or ice cream if not overly crowded. It is not much of a museum but a sort of sales outlet for green tea products.

Sanbangsan is a magnificent trachyte cone abruptly rising 395 meters by the sea that lacks crater on its summit. Access to the grotto is steep stairs up for 10 minutes. There is a tiny cubbyhole of the 10 meter cave with a small pool and a stone Buddha surrounded by burning candles. The grotto's aura is enchanting with the welcoming scent of incense hanging heavily and the sound of water steadily dripping into the pool. The views from the grotto over the coastal fields, offshore islands, and the ocean are absolutely stunning. .


Drive past Yongmeori Coast. The Dutch ship was wrecked nearby coastal waters on August 16, 1653 and of the 64 crewmembers only 36 survived. A duplicate of Dutch East India Company VOC-ship, The Sperwer with its rare exhibits, is on display on the dry land and the Hendrick Hamel Monument was erected where he came ashore. He was the first Western to write about Korea "The Journal of Hendrick Hamel" the improbable adventures of the surviving crewmembers of The Sperwer, giving the first detailed description of Korea that was unknown land to Europe.

Later, you will tour Cheonjeyeon Falls cascading in three different stages into a deep Cheonjeyeon pools. Up from the fall is a large arch bridge, having 7 fairies carved on the side, allowing visitors a spectacular view of the falls. During the winter months, this waterfall may be nothing more than a mere trickle, but the nature itself is still beautiful.
