Jeju City
Hike Hallasan, walk Jeju's Olle coastal trails, explore lava tubes, and drive to volcanic beaches - the activity guide to South Korea's island.
Island Guides
Jeju Island
South Korea's volcanic island is in a category of its own: UNESCO-listed craters, black lava coastline, tangerine groves, and a seafood culture rooted in the traditions of the haenyeo divers. These guides cover everything from Hallasan to Seongsan to Udo Island.
About Jeju Island
Getting to Jeju
Domestic flights from Seoul (Gimpo) take around 1 hour and run frequently throughout the day. Ferries from Mokpo and Wando are an option but take 3–5 hours. Most visitors fly.
Getting Around
Renting a car is the most practical option; public buses cover main sites but are slow. International driving licences are accepted. Hiring a scooter or e-bike works well for shorter trips around the coast.
Best Time to Visit
Spring (April–May) for cherry blossoms and mild weather. Autumn (October–November) for clear skies and autumn foliage on Hallasan. July–August is peak season, with busy beaches and higher prices. Winter is mild but can be wet.
