| Description |
|
Udo Island is an island at the east end of Jeju Island. It is called Udo because
its shape resembles that of a cow that is lying down or sticking out its head.
The circumference of Udo Island is 17km and there are about 700 houses and 1800
residents who live on farming and fishing. Udo Island is the biggest island
among the many islands that surround Jejudo Island – its land is furtile, it has
abundant fishing farms, and is a great place to visit. Udo Island can also give
you the impression that you are seeing a miniaturized Jeju island when you see
Jeju women divers, stone streets, stone tombs and very similar traditional
culture and natural environments. If you go up to the top of island to Udobong
Peak. you can see the entire Jejudo island including Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak (a
famous spot for sunrises). In northern Jejudo, in order to protect the natural
environment and promote tourism, two of the harbor areas and the seashore area
have been designated as Udo Maritime Park. You can enjoy fishing all over the
island, and you can visit the whole island in 2-3 hours on a bicycle.
