A Boat Tour on Heuksando Island (흑산도)




Heuksando Island (흑산도)


Have you heard of Heuksando ? 

Heuksando Island is located at the southern end of Korea about 92.7 km away from Mokpo.
(It takes 2hours by ferry )


It's such a small island. 
But there are 1004 different islands(include Heuksando) around this island.

And the only way you can see the islands is taking a boat tour.
In that way, you can look around the sea and see the islands. Since most of them are uninhabited, you will see beautiful natural view which is rarely cisited by anyone. 
Of course you can't see every island at once. 


But here's a review of boat tour courses.


This is 1st course.
It goes around about 30 islands and takes about 2 hours.





▼ You can sit inside of the boat. Also can be 2nd floor.
And it has a small toilet.

One Guy in front of the ship will give you guide  about history or just story about islands.
If you can understand Korean, it would be fun. On the other hand, it's still okay.


▼ It's 'disco rock'. (디스코바위)


▼ Crane rock. (학바위)
Because it had a crane fossil on the crevice between two rocks.
(the little white thing..)

▼ Candle rock (촛대바위)

 ▼ Lotus rock (연꽃바위)

▼ Jesus rock / Monkey rock


▼ Skate cave. 

I loved Heuksan-do sea's color a lot.

 ▼ On the way back to the port. 
It seems like the two guys definitely know how to enjoy the sea. :P 
 


Maybe the name of islets might sound silly for you, but once you are seeing the beautiful scenery, you could be generous than you used to be.




Information.

The trip costs 19,000 each (and is worth it.)

▼The tour company is close to Post office.
