Hyeopjaegul Lava Tube is one example of the lava tube systems of Jeju Island, along with Hwanggeumgul, Socheongul, Ssangyonggul and Manjanggul Lava Tubes. The cave is approximately 200 meters in length, 10 meters in x_width and 5 meters in x_height. It is thought to have been created by the lava that erupted from Hallasan Mountain some 25 million years ago. This cave uniquely contains features of both lava and limestone caves. The entire area surrounding the cave is a huge stratum of seashells and sand, while the interior of the cave has a mystical ambience due to its various formations such as stalactites and stalagmites, hanging from the ceiling and sprouting up from the bottom of the cave. The cave also features pillars formed when stalactites and stalagmites join together. The cave walls are covered in lime, which at times looks like beautiful cave paintings. The temperature inside the cave stays at 17~18℃ throughout the year, making the cave a welcome escape from the summer heat and a great place to keep warm during winter.

Hyeopjaegul Lava Tube has been designated Natural Monument No. 236 and ranks among the world’s major mysterious caves, such as the stone salt cave of Peru and the underwater limestone caves of Yugoslavia. As Hyeopjaegul Lava Tube is close to Ssangyonggul Lava Tube, the two can be visited on the same day.

Gwakji-ri, Jeju-si, Jeju-do

Handam Coastal Trail, also known as the Gwakgeum Olle Trail, is established along the shore from Aewol Port to Gwakjigwamul Beach. It beautifully harmonizes with the surrounding landscape. The trail runs 1.2 kilometers and visitors can walk on this coastal trail as waves crash right next to them. It is one of the "hidden gems of Jeju city" selected by the city in 2009 when 31 famous spots in Jeju-si other than the existing tourist attractions were chosen and announced. Uniquely-shaped rocks made by cooled and hardened lava grab the attention of passersby, and the trail that continuously winds along the beach featuring black rocks adds an element of excitement. Another appealing point is that it is a great place to watch the beautiful sunset as it is located on the west side of Jeju Island.

Clear waters, a beautiful beach with white sand and seashells, fantastic sunset, and the view of Biyangdo Island beyond sum up to describe Geumneung Beach. The white sandy beach where the bottom of the shallow, blue water is clearly seen creates an illusion that one can easily walk all the way to Biyangdo. With clear, shallow waters and amenities like the shower booth, Geumneung Beach is a family-friendly vacation destination.

Geumneung Beach is directly connected to Hyeopjae Beach, another popular tourist spot on the west side of Jeju Island. However, despite the common charming elements the two beaches share, Geumneung Beach sees a relatively small number of visitors than its neighbor, so it exudes a more relaxing vibe. Moreover, the beach and the parking lot are directly connected, making it more convenient to move baggage and other belongings. The newly built showers supply warm water, which is another advantge of the beach.

It is recommended to visit the beach during the hours of ebb tide. Once the sea water recedes afar, a vast, beautiful sandy beach appears. The water is shallow in many parts where natural swimming pools are formed, allowing little children to be able to play safely.
