Beach description
Because of the black sand, the water also seems dark. But in the sunshine, the water shimmers with a turquoise color, crystal clear and transparent. The entrance to the water is quite gentle and shallow.
It is also important that the water of the Pacific Ocean in this part of Jeju is mineralized due to the influx of water from basalt rocks. Also, the place of concentration of mineral waters on the beach has become a favorite place for children's games.
The beach is open for visiting from mid-July to the end of September. Black Sand Beach Festival is held annually on the Black Sand Beach. A feature of the Black Sandy Samyang Beach is that even after sunset, the sand remains warm for a long time, and it is pleasant to walk barefoot on it.
