A small island just off Yeosu's waterfront. It is 15 minutes on foot along the breakwater, or 5 minutes on the camellia train. Inside are camellia woods and sea-cliff paths, with the flowers out from winter into early spring. Many people cross over from Suncheon and add it as a day trip. Entry to the island is free.
