Kongdol Pebble Beach

Protected beach of smooth bean-shaped quartzite pebbles, polished by Baengnyeong's surf.

Kongdol Pebble Beach is made of small rounded quartzite stones, many of them pale, grey, red, or purple. The name refers to their bean-like shape, and the pleasure is simple: listen to the water pull the pebbles back and forth, and look closely at the colours underfoot.

It is protected as a natural monument, so do not take stones away. The beach is better for looking, walking, and listening than for lying down with a towel.
