Destination briefing
Why travelers stop here
Among the scenic views of the west coast, the seawater is clear and the sand is the finest. The beach is relatively short, and it is connected to nearby Mallipo and Cheollipo, hence it is called Baengnipo Beach. It does not have the vastness of Mallipo, nor the loneliness of Cheollipo, but it has a unique charm that sets it apart. There are cliffs on both sides of the beach, which are more beautiful than the famous cliffs seen in Guam or Saipan. With its untouched natural scenery, clean sea, and fine sand, this place unfolds between forests like a secret fortress for those seeking tranquility. The surrounding pine forest spreads out like a folding screen, adding to its beauty. On the less frequented beach, there are plenty of pretty flower clams with beautiful shells, and on the rocks submerged in water, there are quite a few mussels. You can pick as many as you want and boil them for a delicious meal.
