Referred to as the Hawaii of Korea, Jeju Do is categorized as a sub-tropic volcanic island, located off the southern tip of the South Korean mainland. The average annual temperature of Jeju is 11.7 degrees. Jeju Island receives a large amount of precipitation throughout the year, thanks in large part to mount Hallasan – the tallest in Korea – at the center of the island, effectively blocking air masses that move in from the coastal areas.
Jeju is known for its Eco Tourism and is home to breath taking coastlines, volcanic caves, lush forests and fairytale like waterfalls. Although Jeju Island is a beautiful place to visit, it does get rather congested during the peak summer season.
Population: 446,000
The capital of Jeju Province and the largest city on the Island. Home to many prestigious hotels and resorts, a public casino and world class convention centers. Jeju international airport receives more than 10 million visiters each year, primarily Korean, Japanese and Chinese tourists.
Population: 160,000
Nestled on the rocky volcanic shores of Jeju Island, Seogwipo is the second largest city in the province. The entire city and surrounding region were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site after hundreds of archeological artifacts were found in Saengsugwe Cave.
