Yongmeori Coast

The Yongmeori Coast is not really a beach, but a headland of phantasmagoric sandstone cliffs located where the dramatic lava dome of Sanbangsan mountain meets the sea. The cliff is actually the remnant of an old tuff ring produced by three undersea volcanic vents. Weathered by millennia of wind and waves, the highly stratified cliffs, which reach over 150 feet in height, sharply twist and turn as they make their way along the sea. Here and there, the sea has carved out coves, inlets, and caves. You can walk along the bottom of the cliffs, though entry is forbidden during inclement weather and high tide.
