Seopjikoji 섭지코지
Jeju · Seongsan & Seopjikoji · Parks & nature
A windswept volcanic headland on the island's east coast, with a path through rapeseed flowers in spring and open views of Seongsan Ilchulbong across the water. A paved walk circles the point, passing a small lighthouse and a rocky shoreline, and the whole loop takes about an hour. There is also a modern building on the grounds that has featured in dramas and films, and cafes at the entrance for coffee or a snack.
The headland is exposed, so wind is common in every season. It is free to walk, though parking fees apply. Look up the day's hours rather than relying on a printed guide.
It is about 1 hour 15 minutes by car from Jeju Airport, with a paid parking lot at the entrance. Local buses reach Seongsan, but a taxi is needed for the last stretch. (Show a driver: 섭지코지)
