Gwakji Beach

Hotel is dated but clean and the grounds are beautiful, as is the ocean view. Staff speak hardly any English so you need a translation app if staying here. Expedia led us to believe there were restaurants on site but this is not the case, so you need to walk into town (2km) or take taxis (very reasonable prices) as the hotel is quite remote. Staying during a typhoon is not to be recommended - the staff were not happy that we wanted to sit in the lobby lounge when it was too wet to go outside and public safety warnings had been issued. Good local restaurants are the Dive 303 BBQ and the Olle Jumak - just outside the Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market which itself is well worth visiting. The Honeymoon House cafe on the Olle 6 trail is excellent. Breakfast at the hotel is excellent with plenty of choice.
