With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy everything that Deokpo Beach, 60 miles away, has to offer. Geoje Sea Village Folk Museum, Geoje City Hall and Kohyeon General Market alone justify the drive out here. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Geoje-si Beach, 50 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, make sure it’s Mongdol Beach. (But we’re also big fans of Chilcheonryang Seabattle Memorial Park and Nongso Pebble Beach.)
