Tag: best relaxing island for vacation,the 1st slow city in Asia,2days in camping on the beautiful beach,ferry,bus tour

Hi all~!


June,4~6th, we go trip and hike for the holiday getaway, the best island "Cheongsan-do island" where people really want to have a vacation as the most recently, especially it's so peaceful and beautiful sceneries and not even crowded.You just can ask any koreans about this island and get to know how much they want to go there.We will camp on the most beautiful beach in south sea.


We go friday night as soon as you finish working, we leave out of city,from usual life and into the best beach in south sea.You just can find yourself to sleep on the beach and the sound of waves of ocean. We will take a ferry to the Cheongsan-do island for an hour~!


We go as a group to save time,more safe,much cheaper,we will have bonfire on the beach and BBQ party,enjoy camping~!
