📝 1. Overview
Gwangalli Beach is where locals go when they want the sea breeze and a solid night out. Unlike touristy Haeundae, this beach strip has a laid-back soul — with sand-between-your-toes cafés, craft beer joints, and the most iconic view in Busan: the mighty Gwangan Bridge, lighting up the sea with its rainbow glow every night. It’s perfect for dates, friend hangouts, or solo sunset reflection sessions.
🌟 2. Highlights
🌉 Gwangan Bridge Night View – Dynamic light shows over 7km double-decker bridge
🏖️ Wide Sandy Beach – Ideal for barefoot walks, photo ops & volleyball
🎆 Drone Light Shows (weekends) – Seasonal events with 300+ flying drones
🎨 Beachside Art Walls & Cafés – Graffiti, pop-up art, and Insta-ready exteriors
🍻 Craft Beer & Seafood Street – Dozens of hip bars & seafood joints with ocean views
🎶 Busking & Fire Dancers – Nightly street shows near the center zone
