Last week i went to Jeongok Port which is located at Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do, just an hour from Seoul by car. Here you can experience the sea activity that loved by the elite's with reasonable price. Jeongok Port has good conditions for marine leisure sports because of its calm waters more than 3 meters deep. This port also hosting the Korean Match Cup every year and has been compared to Naples in Italy, with luxurious yachts berthed at the marina!
There were various type of vessels from modest to premium luxury yachts. Just select from those berthed at the marina and inquire before boarding. Don't forget to bring the shrimp crackers snack "Saeu kkang" (새우깡) and right after boarding you can experience the movie like-scene cyan blue sky, whirling seagulls, and the jade ocean waves while enjoying the cool autumn breeze really seems like a romantic drama movie scene >.<
There are so many seagulls surrounding this port sea area that you may even feed them with the shrimp crackers that you bought!
For lunch we go to the nearest bajirak kalguksu or knifecut clam noodle restaurant only like 300m from the port, and located in the 2nd floor of the building. 1st floor functioned as seafood market.
The Kalguksu coming in super huge big bowl, even 4 people can't finished it..the noodles taste so-so, not something that make me come again or crave because im not a big fan of clams too..but the shrimp tasted ok, even in my own opinion fried shrimp must using the peeled shrimp rather than the skinned one kkk
This is definitely another hidden gem that is great for experience if you're in Korea! Find out more information here.
