Jungmun Beach
Jungmun Beach is South Korea's premier surf spot—a beautiful beach break on the volcanic island of Jeju that catches typhoon swells during summer and autumn. The setting is stunning: black volcanic sand, dramatic rock formations, and clear blue water. South Korea's surf scene is small but growing rapidly, and Jungmun is its spiritual home. When Pacific storms track north, this beach lights up with fun, punchy waves. Korean surfing at its best.
