Chagwido's rocky islets and volcanic coastal scenery
Chagwido is an uninhabited island landscape comprising Daeseom and surrounding rocky islets off Gosan. This protected natural area combines volcanic terrain with seabird habitats; viewing from land and taking a sightseeing boat offer different types of visit.
View the island from the Jagunae Port area, or book an operator's sightseeing boat for a closer look. Trips around the sea and those that let you land and walk on the island are different; check landing inclusion and permitted routes first.

Different schedules for sightseeing by sea and walking after landing
We suggest a short stop for views from land. A boat trip adds boarding preparation, sightseeing and return-to-port time. If choosing a landing package, check currently permitted walks and weather-cancellation conditions, and do not enter undesignated areas.
On sightseeing trips that include landing, first confirm how long you have to walk on the island and when to board again. If sailings are canceled, you can switch to viewing Chagwido from land.

Conditions families should check for an island trip
When taking children or older travelers on a boat, check seasickness, boarding and disembarking conditions and life-saving equipment. Even after landing, do not touch protected landforms or vegetation or approach rock edges; follow the operator's designated paths.
An uninhabited island does not mean visitors may go wherever they wish. Families should stay together on the operator's visitor routes, keeping clear of protected landforms and bird habitats.

Going to your booked boarding point at Jagunae Port
Chagwido's reference land-parcel address identifies the island itself and is not a driving destination. Confirm your booked Jagunae Port operator's exact ticketing and boarding locations. In poor weather, switch to views from land or another itinerary.
After Chagwido, consider Suwolbong Geo Trail or Sinchang Windmill Coastal Road. Rather than fitting them all into one visit, choose one to start with according to your direction of travel and your companions' energy, and check the actual transport connections.
