🇰🇷 Seogwipo | Waterfalls, Coastal Trails & Southern Jeju Charms 🌊🍊🏞️


📝 1. Overview

Seogwipo is Jeju’s southern soul—where dramatic cliffs meet ocean spray and citrus trees line the hills. Known for its waterfalls, lava-formed coastline, and scenic walking trails, this region is slower, sunnier, and more relaxed than Jeju City. It’s the perfect place to connect with nature, eat fresh seafood, and soak in the island’s poetic side.
