Yeosu itineraries
Night Sea in a Day
Arrive by KTX and do it all without a car: Odongdo's camellia woods in the morning, the square and mural lanes by day, the cable car at sunset, and a harbor-front pocha to finish.
Sunrise at Dolsan's End
Day one fills up on the Expo grounds, the markets and crab-marinade alley; day two starts before dawn at Hyangiram for sunrise through the rocks. A run to the very end of the Dolsan peninsula.
Three Days, Islands Included
Day one takes the temple and luge west of town, day two crosses the bridges to Nangdo, day three rides the ferry to walk Geumodo's cliff path. One car, all the way out past the city.
