Jindo itineraries

Tower to Sunset

Look down on the Uldolmok currents, walk a hillside studio built for ink painting, and end with the sun dropping between islands. One car, one full day on Jindo.

Sea Path and West Coast

Start where the sea path opens, walk the Namdo Fortress, send off the sun at Sebang, sleep over, then cross to Usuyeong. An unhurried two days.

Jindo and Its Islands

One day on the main island, one on Gwanmaedo, one on Jodo. Two ferry days show you the outer face of Jindo.
