With a shoreline that reaches 73 kilometers, Gangneung is blessed with fantastic beaches. While beaches like Gyeongpohaebyeon Beach, Jeongdongjin Beach, and Gangmun Beach see a lot of family and friends on vacation, there are two beaches in particular that attract visitors who love to take photos. Hyanghohaebyeon Beach is a popular pilgrimage site among BTS fans, while Sageunjinhaebyeon Beach creates a lovely scenery with colorful tetrapod structures in the backdrop. After a tour around the beaches, head to Ojukheon House for a leisurely walk.

Recommended travel tips
Chodang Sundubu
Chodang sundubu is a type of soft bean curd that originated from Chodang-dong in Gangneung. Chodang sundubu uses seawater from Gangneung during the coagulation process, resulting in a softer texture compared to that of bean curds from other regions. There are many soft bean curd restaurants in Chodang Sundubu Village, but if you want to taste something more unique, we recommend Gangneung Donghwa Garden’s jjamppong sundubu (spicy noodles with soft bean curd).
