The Boryeong Beach Special Tourist Zone consists of three major attractions: Daecheon Beach, Muchangpo Beach and Jukdo Island.

The 3.5-kilometer-long, 100-meter-wide Daecheon Beach is popular as the main venue for the annual Boryeong Mud Festival, which attracts about 2 million domestic and international tourists every year. The soft, white sand and lush pine trees also make this an ideal beach to visit for a walk. Various accommodations can easily be found here since the area has been a popular tourist destination for quite some time.

Located south of Daecheon Beach, Muchangpo Beach is where visitors can witness a sea-parting phenomenon in the summer. The 1.5-kilometer “Mystic Sea Road” between Muchangpo Beach and Seokdaedo Island reveals itself when the water levels go down due to the difference in the ebb and flow of the tides. During the sea parting, visitors will be able to catch clams, crabs and shellfish. The beach also offers a breathtaking view of the sunset.

Jukdo Island is located midway between Daecheon Beach and Muchangpo Beach. This unpopulated fishing island is known for its dense groves of bamboo trees. The waters in front of the island are clean and full of fish, drawing a large number of visitors for sea fishing.

The zip track of the course, which glides slightly over the sea in Daecheon from the 19-story tower with a x_height of 52m, perfectly satisfies the desire to fly. Actors Park Bogum and Kim Youjung experienced this in ‘Youth MT’. Thanks to the line installed along the coast, you can see downtown Daecheon on the right at the beginning and fly over the sea from the middle to the end, which is even more fun. The cart ride on the way back is another ‘fun’ point, and it takes about 10 minutes to get back to the tower. There is also a cafe in the observatory one floor above the boarding area, so it is good to enjoy the scenery from an open point of view.
