Was Songdo Beach this hot?🔥 Every year, during the summer swimming season, it seems like more and more people are coming! And since the beach is becoming more and more well-maintained and pretty, I thought that more people would come next year. The English logo that said Songdo Beach was really hip and cool😎 Even though we arrived at a time when swimming was over, I saw tourists leisurely strolling around or busy using the showers, and this is a real vacation spot🏖 This is really summer! I thought that🌊 But the day before the typhoon forecast, the sea breeze was pretty strong. I got hit by sand and was out of my mind🤣 But it still felt like a trip, so it was a happy afternoon🩵 - - 📍Songdo Beach 🧭Amnam-dong, Seo-gu, Busan ⏰️06:00-23:00 ℹ️Use the street parking lot #Exciting summer vacation #Busan travel

#summervacay If you’re in Busan and haven’t done the Songdo Marine Cable Car, what are you even doing? It’s such a fun, chill way to see the coast, and honestly, kinda magical. You’re literally gliding over the ocean, and if you get the glass-bottom cabin (which you totally should), it’s a wild feeling looking straight down at the waves. The ride itself isn’t super long, but the views are everything. You get this panoramic look at Songdo Beach, cliffs, and all the little boats cruising around. Sunset is a game changer, like full-on postcard vibes. There's a little area at the top where you can walk around, grab snacks, and snap a million pics. Great for a date, solo adventure, or just pretending you're in a travel vlog. Super easy to get to from central Busan too. Definitely one of those “yeah, I did that” moments. Would totally do it again, maybe in cooler weather next time!

It takes about two hours to take the subway from downtown Seoul. Transfer to Incheon Line 1 and get off at Dongchun Station. After arriving in Songdo, we chose to take the bus 🚌 to go to Young-hoon’s elementary and middle school first. I also bought some spicy noodles at the entrance of Hyun Jae's middle school. It's easy to walk and stop like this. The environment in Songdao is really good, with green everywhere. Maybe because there are so many schools, I saw a lot of children. The supporting facilities are also very complete, and there are amusement facilities for children every few steps. After visiting 🍞 and 🎁’s school, I took the bus to the beach. It was really beautiful and relaxing. Many people were feeding seagulls on the coast. In the evening, I went to eat the Qin Shi Huang potato and spine soup recommended by the locals in Songdao. There were two tables in line. Very very fragrant! The portion is super big and spicy, so those who can't eat spicy food should be careful ❕ Before leaving, I received compliments from the coffee shop staff. It was truly a happy short journey. I really want to live in Songdo...it's a very romantic place... 🍞Elementary School📍925-1 Dongchun-dong, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon 🍞Middle School📍 923-7 Dongchun-dong, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon 🍞High School📍Incheon Metropolitan City Yeonsu-gu Songdo-dong 15-4 🎁Elementary School📍Incheon Metropolitan City Yeonsu-gu Songdo-dong 3-12 🎁Middle School📍 3-43 Songdo-dong, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon Seaside Park 📍Incheon Metropolitan City Yeonsu District Songdo-dong 12-8 Potato spine soup 📍 Incheon Metropolitan City Yeonsu District Yeonsu-dong 598-4# Seoul Itinerary

I had the opportunity to stay at the Busan seaside, at Songdo Beach. The beach is beautifully curved. This is a place for Busan residents to relax. The atmosphere along the beach is very good. The wind is cool and comfortable. You can walk and take pictures from many angles. There is a walking bridge for exercising. If you want to take a cable car, there is one too. But we didn't take it. There are also cafes along the beach. When I went, the waves were strong, so I didn't get to swim. #Get a discount without relying on luck #Visit Busan

I recommend it for an anniversary.

Pretty beach with lots of picture taking opportunities so come and visit !

#dreamdestination Let me introduce the night view of Songdo Beach. It is very nice for sightseeing.

One of the famous bathing beaches in Busan, along with Gwangan-ri and Haeundae. It is the older generation of Koreans who even think it is the most famous because it was opened in 1913 and was the first bathing beach in Busan. Busan Songdo Beach is about 3 kilometers away from Busan city. The beach is 800 meters long and 50 meters wide, with an average water depth of about 1~1.5 meters. It took five years to renovate since 2000. In addition to the beach, there are also the four treasures of Matsushima - there are skywalks, Dragon Palace Bridge, Matsushima Cable Car, Yannan Park and so on. The hotel is not too expensive, many locals come to staycation. If you are in a good mood, you can take a slow walk on Matsushima Beach or the Embankment Matsushima Coast Scenic Loop. The security here is good, so you can walk day and night without any problem.
