A Collection of Great Viewing Spots for the Busan Gwangalli Fireworks Festival
Viewing Points for Those Who Want to Capture Both Gwangandaegyo Bridge and the Sea
The charm of the Busan Fireworks Festival lies in the stunning view of Gwangandaegyo Bridge framed by the sea. Even within the Gwangalli area, the experience varies significantly depending on whether you're viewing it head-on from the beach, from the side at Minrak, from a distance at Haeundae or Igidae, or from a high viewpoint like Hwangryeong Mountain.
This list compiles notable viewing spots to consider when enjoying the Busan Fireworks Festival or nighttime events in Gwangalli. While nearby spots offer a vibrant atmosphere, they can be quite crowded and chaotic when heading home; farther locations provide a relaxed viewing experience but may have smaller fireworks displays. Depending on whether you're looking to take photos, enjoy a comfortable viewing experience with children, or considering the route back to your accommodation, it's wise to choose your viewing location accordingly.

Gwangalli Beach
Gwangalli Beach is a prime viewing site where you can feel the direct excitement of the Busan Fireworks Festival. Positioned directly in front of Gwangandaegyo Bridge, it allows you to enjoy a beautiful combination of fireworks, music, and the lively atmosphere. If it's your first time experiencing the Busan Fireworks Festival, this is the most iconic choice. The composition is perfect for photos capturing the sea, bridge, and fireworks all in one frame.
However, you will also experience significant competition for spots and crowds here. Even if you arrive early, restrooms, convenience stores, and food spots can lead to long lines, and after the event, Gwang an Station and Geumryeonsan Station are likely to be extremely crowded. If you are with family or kids, it’s better to consider areas on the outskirts that allow for easier exit rather than crowding in the center.

Minrak Waterfront Park
Minrak Waterfront Park offers a unique view of Gwangandaegyo Bridge and the sea from the east side of Gwangalli Beach. With a somewhat side-angle view compared to Gwangalli Beach, you can capture a different feel with the fireworks and bridge, while enjoying a nice leisurely atmosphere along the waterfront. This is also a potential spot for photographers.
However, being a well-known viewing site, competition for spots is substantial. The areas close to the breakwater or waterfront may have safety lines and access restrictions, so it’s essential to follow on-site guidance. Being close to the restaurant district in Minrak, it’s a good idea to plan your meal times in advance, as ordering and mobility during the event can take longer.

Dongbaek Island Nurimaru APEC House Area
Around Dongbaek Island Nurimaru APEC House
The area around Dongbaek Island Nurimaru APEC House provides a distant yet captivating view of Gwangandaegyo Bridge and the fireworks from the Haeundae side. While you may not experience overwhelming sounds and excitement here, it’s a great option for those who want a calm viewing experience while capturing the night view of Haeundae and the sea together with the distant Gwangandaegyo Bridge.
Fireworks may appear smaller, so if you plan to take photos, having a telephoto lens or zoom-capable equipment can be beneficial. The walking paths and viewing areas might be dark at night, so ensure to check for safety while moving around. Travelers staying at Haeundae accommodations might consider this spot as a more laid-back alternative to the bustling center of Gwangalli.

Igidae Coastal Walkway
The Igidae Coastal Walkway offers beautiful views of Gwangandaegyo Bridge and the Gwangalli direction from across the sea. You get a wide-open view that differs from Gwangalli Beach, providing a pleasant ambiance to enjoy both the coastline of Busan and the fireworks. This is a great option for those who want to see Gwangandaegyo Bridge while avoiding the crowds of the central area.
However, the nighttime walkway can feature dark sections and slopes, making safety paramount. There may be access restrictions or limited entry during the event, and returning traffic might not be as straightforward as in central Gwangalli. If you're with children or the elderly, it's safer to focus on easily accessible viewing points rather than venturing deep into the walkway.

Hwangnyeongsan Beacon Tower
Hwangryeong Mountain Beacon
Hwangryeong Mountain Beacon is a high viewpoint where you can take in the night view of Busan's cityscape along with the direction of Gwangalli. This spot is more suited for those who want to see the fireworks bursting within the overall nighttime scenery rather than being right up close. It’s a popular choice for photography enthusiasts as well.
Even if vehicle access is available, parking and entry can be very complicated on event days. Depending on the situation, taxi usage and foot traffic might also have limitations, so it’s wise to plan your transport conservatively. Because it can be windy and the perceived temperature might be low, remember to dress warmly, and be mindful not to obstruct the view or movement of other attendees if using a tripod.

Geumryeonsan Youth Training Center Observatory
The observatory at Geumryeonsan Youth Training Center offers a high vantage point to overlook Gwangalli and Gwangandaegyo Bridge at night. Expecting a wide view like from Hwangryeong Mountain, this location allows for relatively clear visibility of Gwangalli, making it appealing for those considering the composition for photos.
Make sure to check the facility usage hours and access routes in advance. On event days, vehicle entry, parking, and walking routes might differ from usual, and the space at the observatory can be limited. If you want a quieter experience of both the night view and fireworks, this spot is attractive, but for a more immersive fireworks experience with the music, Gwangalli Beach would be a better choice.

Marine City Movie Street
Marine City Film Street
Marine City Film Street offers a great combination of Haeundae's high-rise buildings and Gwangandaegyo Bridge in its views. While it’s a bit farther than the center of Gwangalli, the coastal night views and urban atmosphere make it a nice spot for a dual experience of photography and leisurely walks. It offers a relatively natural connection with Haeundae accommodations.
The coastal winds can be strong, and on event days, the walking paths and surrounding roads might be congested. You may not see the fireworks as large as from the direct viewpoint of Gwangalli, so it better suits those who prioritize atmosphere and composition. Using a camera or smartphone zoom can help capture sharper images of the fireworks direction towards Gwangandaegyo.

Cheongsapo Daritdol Observatory
Cheongsapo Daritdol Observatory is a distant coastal viewing spot significantly away from Gwangalli's center. It’s more about enjoying a seaside stroll and the coastal night scenery while feeling the festival atmosphere from afar, rather than directly seeing the large fireworks. This can be an alternative for travelers hesitant about the bustling crowds.
Due to the distance, the fireworks will likely appear smaller, and satisfaction may vary greatly depending on weather and visibility. On windy days or days with poor visibility, the experience may fall short of expectations. If you plan a leisurely schedule including cafes or walking routes around Cheongsapo, it fits nicely, but for those looking to see large fireworks displays, choosing another viewing location might be prudent.

Suyeong River Park Breakwater Area
Nearby Breakwater at the Waterfront Park
The area around the breakwater at the waterfront park allows for a side view of the sea and Gwangandaegyo Bridge. While it differs from the overwhelming front view at Gwangalli Beach, it's still a good candidate for those who want to feel the fireworks atmosphere from close to the sea. It pairs well with Minrak Waterfront Park, allowing for checks on nearby routes.
Safety lines and access restrictions are particularly crucial around the breakwater. On event days, access to dangerous zones can be blocked, and feelings of safety can vary with waves and winds. Avoid moving too close to railings or restricted lines to take photos. It’s a good idea to check facilities and return routes with the Minrak area in mind ahead of time.

Haeundae Beach West Walkway
West Walkway of Haeundae Beach
The west walkway of Haeundae Beach provides a way to step away from the center of Gwangalli while still enjoying the night view of Haeundae and the distant fireworks. It suits those who consider a seaside stroll, accommodation routes, and appreciating the night view as priorities over directly seeing large fireworks.
Due to the distance, you may not see low-bursting fireworks well, and the experience highly depends on weather and visibility conditions. However, it may align better with the return routes after watching fireworks when staying near Haeundae. If you’re in Haeundae, consider comparing Dongbaek Island, Marine City, and the west walkway of Haeundae together to choose a spot that minimizes movement burdens.

When it comes to watching the Busan fireworks, how you exit is just as important as where you watch. The center of Gwangalli offers a great atmosphere but can become very crowded right after the show with subway stations and roads packed with people; high viewpoints or outskirts might have limited transportation options. Before visiting, make sure to check for restricted areas, last public transport departures, direction to accommodations, and restroom locations.
If you're a first-time visitor, it's safer to select not only the closest prime spot but also an alternative vantage point that offers good sightlines and easier access. Since coastal and mountain viewpoints can be windy, remember to bring a jacket, a portable charger, and some light snacks.
