Hajodo Island

하조도 · Jeonnam · Beaches & islands

Hajodo Island is named after the 154 small and big islands making up the islets that resemble a flock of birds. One of the beauties of Hajodo Island is the splendid harmony created between the land and sea. It offers a view of islands in the middle of the deep blue water, fishing boats moving across the calm sea, and the scenic landscape of a tranquil farming village. Visitors can camp at Sinjeon Beach or Morakkae Beach, and a particular treat this area offers a tour of the islands, which take visitors to the anchovy fishing grounds near Jukhangdo Island and to the baby islands in the area. Nearby is also Hajodo Lighthouse, standing 12 meters high. There is a superb trekking trail that provides an amazing view of Dadohae (Sea of Many Islands) as visitors walk up the path to the lighthouse. Taking a boat from Eoryupo Port to the lighthouse makes it possible to enjoy the sight of the coast’s majestic rugged cliffs.
