Islands of the West and South Seas, Perfect for Watching the Sunset
Real Korean islands where you can enjoy evenings by the beach and in town, and stay overnight
A day on an island flows differently after the last ferry leaves. Watching the sunset on beaches and at harbors without day-trippers, and walking through village paths before the morning ferry arrives, is a different experience from quickly skimming through famous tourist spots. However, on small islands with limited accommodation and dining options, it’s essential to prepare for reservations, meals, and itinerary adjustments in case of bad weather.
This collection doesn’t just list sunset viewpoints; it introduces actual islands in the West and South Seas where the value of travel increases when you stay overnight. We’ve included islands that are accessible by ferry as well as those connected by road, to compare accessibility and plan routes that take you through beaches, towns, history, and into the next morning.

Sinji-do
Sinjido
The travel focus of Sinjido is enjoying the beautiful sunset leisurely on the long sandy beach of Myeongsasipri and in the pine forest. Instead of just saving the island's name on a map, knowing what kind of scenery you wish to see makes it easier to determine your stay time and mode of transportation. If your intention is to watch the sunset or stay overnight, it's also necessary to consider the distance from the pier or bridge entrance to your first destination.
You can understand the access method as follows. Sinjido is connected to Wando via Sinjidaegyo, which makes it convenient for vehicle access and accommodation transfers. Short distances on the map may take longer than expected due to winding coastal roads, uphill climbs, and bus schedules. If you are using a ferry, it’s important to check the departure location name, dock sequence, and whether vehicles are allowed onboard.
Before your visit, check the seasonal operation of the beach, camping areas, parking spaces, and meal availability late in the day. Conditions of using the same place may change depending on the weather, tide, and seasonal operation, so always double-check the official operation and control information on your departure day. It’s fundamental to respect the living spaces of residents and conservation areas by not leaving trash or harvested goods behind.

Reducing unnecessary lighting to see the stars and sunsets, while respecting the residents' rest time, is also a key condition for a good night on the island.
