About Jeju Island  

Jeju Island, also known as the “Island of the Gods,” is the largest island in South Korea situated off the south east cost of the Korean Peninsula. The island has mild oceanic climate throughout the year with the smallest annual temperature range in the country. The island's mixture of volcanic rock and temperate climate make it very similar to the Hawaiian Islands in the U.S. The island offers visitors a wide range of activities: hiking on Halla-san (South Korea's highest peak), catching sunrises

and sunsets over the ocean, viewing majestic waterfalls, riding horses, or just lying around on the sandy beaches. Jeju's nature environment was preserved as best as possible. The fantastically shaped rocks decorating the seashores, hundreds of Oreums (secondary volcanoes) and the rarest species of flora around the Baengnokdam Lake are all treasures waiting to be discovered by visitors.
