Gueom Port’s sogeum bille salt fields and dodaebul beacon
At Gueom Port, explore the fishing harbor alongside Gueom-ri's sogeum bille, flat basalt surfaces once used to make salt. The connection between the level rocky coast and the village's former salt industry is a distinctive feature.
The harbor’s dodaebul tells the story of an old navigation beacon that guided fishing boats. Explore traces of salt production and fishing together, and consider how coastal terrain shaped local ways of life.

Explore traces of stone salt fields alongside the harbor
Follow on-site information boards and permitted visitor areas for a short look at the sogeum bille and harbor. Descriptions of the former salt industry do not mean that salt-harvesting activities operate today.
Knowing that Gueom’s flat rocks were used to make salt helps you observe the coastal surface more closely. Use current information boards and permitted visitor areas to explore them alongside the dodaebul beacon.

Learn from visitor areas rather than wet rocks
With children, observe the shapes of the stone salt fields and discuss how salt was made in the past. Wet coastal rocks can be slippery; view them from designated areas rather than going down toward the sea.
Do not move onto wet rocks for close-up photos of the sogeum bille. With children, compare former salt-making processes with the dodaebul beacon’s role in guiding fishing boats to discuss local ways of life.
