Yongduam Rock

용두암

Jeju City, Jeju · 제주

A wave-cut lava formation on the Jeju City shoreline, said to be a dragon caught rising from the sea, with a coastal walkway running west from it.

Why it’s worth it

Ten minutes from the airport, so it works as a first or last stop. Haenyeo divers still sell what they have caught from the rocks beside it.
