East Jeju: Seongsan in the Sun, Manjanggul's Cold Air to Finish
Ratings collected by Viator and Tripadvisor
JejuThe east of Jeju in one day, with English-speaking guides, and the stops put in an order that makes sense for the body as much as the map. The day opens on the coast at Hamdeok Beach, in the morning when the water is clearest and a coffee at a seaside cafe is the whole point. From 8 October that first stop becomes Hueree Natural Park, where the pink muhly comes up in autumn and tangerine picking at 8,000 KRW or feeding the black pigs at 2,000 KRW can be added on the spot. Seongeup Folk Village comes next: thatched houses and walls of volcanic stone, still lived in. The haenyeo dive at Seongsan without oxygen tanks, as they always have. When the performance cannot run, the Haenyeo Museum replaces it. Seongsan Ilchulbong is the climb, a UNESCO crater with the eastern coastline below. Manjanggul is deliberately last. After a morning in the sun on the crater, the cold air inside one of the world's great lava caves is a relief as much as a sight. On the first Wednesday of each month the stop becomes Micheon Cave instead. No forced shopping stops. The day can end at Dongmun market, which is at its best as a night food market. Cancel at least 24 hours before departure for a full refund.

Hamdeok Beach
Visited until 7 October, and replaced by Hueree Natural Park from 8 October. Hamdeok Beach first thing, when the turquoise water is at its best and the seaside cafes are quiet enough to sit with a coffee and look at it.
Hueree Natural Life Park
The first stop from 8 October, in place of Hamdeok Beach. A natural park where the pink muhly comes up in autumn. Tangerine picking costs 8,000 KRW and feeding the black pigs 2,000 KRW, both optional and paid there.
Gwangchigi Beach
Not part of the tour since 1 September. Gwangchigi Beach is the best place to see Seongsan Ilchulbong from, with the sea in front of it.
Seongeup Folk Village
A folk village that people still live in: thatched roofs, volcanic stone walls, and Jeju customs kept up because they are still in use.
[Haenyeo Diving Performance] Watch Jeju’s legendary sea…
Jeju's sea women diving without oxygen tanks, live. If the performance is cancelled, the group goes to the Haenyeo Museum instead.
Seongsan Ilchulbong
The climb up the UNESCO crater at Seongsan, with the eastern coastline of Jeju spread out below it.
[Manjanggul Lava Tube] Visit Manjanggul Lava Tube
Manjanggul is one of the finest lava caves in the world and a UNESCO site. It comes last for a reason: after the sun on Seongsan, the cold air underground is the best thing about it, and the drive back to Jeju City follows. On the first Wednesday of each month the stop becomes Micheon Cave.
Dongmun Market
The day can end at Jeju's oldest market, which is busiest as a night food market.
