Dadohaehaesang National Park, how to get there?

Dadohaehaesang National Park’s annual tourists arrive intending to travel to its islands, and the hassle-free way to do that is to take a boat from Mokpo, a port city that is connected to Seoul by rail. The ferries stay crowded during the summers because that is the best suited season for sight-seeing. You can take a morning ferry in that case if you want to avoid the crowd. 

Versatility in Dadohaehaesang

This place offers you a magical combination of beaches, mountains, islands & even evergreen forests. It almost seems like nature has gone into a complete reboot spree in this part of the world. Dadohaehaesang national park is meant for all kinds of tourists- those who come to relax on their vacay and those who want to seize the day and make their vacay days absolutely thrilling.

  •  Visit Dadohaehaesang during the summertime and swim the days away for your vacation in the clear waters of the sea. You might as well relax by the beach in the park’s virgin islands that offer the salty taste of nature to you straight away. 
  • The humid climate of Dadohaehaesang National Park serves as an amazing breeding ground for both the flora & fauna that you get to see there.

The Unique Rocks of Dadohaehaesang National Park

The rocks of the Dadohaehaesang feature in local mythology. Many of the area’s islands and peaks have their tales, but the virgin and rough-terrain in Baekdo, is known for the presence of Maebawi, or “Hawk Rock,” produced a stark one. This folklore attracts a thousand tourists every year as they arrive to check the validity of the fact.

Dadohaehaesang National Park & its Ecovillage

Some coastal areas of South Korea are taking their natural assets into account. They have started looking for new ways to commercialize their primary attractions and to strengthen their connections with industries locally and nationally, grab global attention.

Dadohaehaesang’s island of Gwanmaedo was the pioneer in this case. Its fishing village utilized the boom in ecotourism by establishing the first Myeongpum Maeul, or “Village of Excellence.” 

They constructed tourist infrastructure by turning older and even abandoned buildings into modern lodgings, laying constructing pathways.

 The team also worked on their patent dishes with locally sourced ingredients for the foodies to enjoy their stay at the Dadohaehaesang National Park.

So, what are you waiting for? Pack your bags & leave for a fun-filled holiday. Take the Dadohaehaesang National Park tour as soon as you can because you mustn’t miss this. This is certainly the most versatile vacay destination amongst all the other Korean National Parks. Because here, the famous debate about ‘mountains or beaches?’ does not stand a chance. Happy Tripping!
