1. Morning Fuel: Dodori Gogi Guksu (도도리 고기국수)

Start your Aewol adventure just 3-4 minutes from Jeju International Airport. Dodori Gogi Guksu is the perfect first stop, offering a spacious, clean interior and a unique view of airplanes landing on the runway. The signature Gogi Guksu (Pork Noodles) features a deep, savory broth that instantly cures travel fatigue.

For a complete feast, pair your noodles with Yuk Twigim (meat fritters) and Suyuk (boiled pork slices). The spicy Bibim Guksu, loaded with fresh vegetables and tender shredded meat, provides a refreshing contrast to the rich broth of the traditional soup.

2. Healing Stroll: Handam Coastal Walk (한담해안산책로)

The Handam Coastal Walk, also known as the Janghancheol Promenade, is arguably the most beautiful walking path in Jeju. Stretching over 1 kilometer, this well-maintained trail hugs the coastline, offering up-close views of bizarrely shaped basalt rocks and the shimmering sea. It is a blissful section of the Jeju Olle Trail that leads you directly to the white sands of Gwakji Beach.

3. Ocean View Feast: Jeju Gwanghae (제주광해 애월)

For lunch, head to Jeju Gwanghae, a hairtail specialty restaurant renowned for its panoramic ocean views. The Gwanghae Mixed Set is a seafood lover’s dream, featuring abalone hairtail stew, grilled hairtail, grilled mackerel, and seafood stew. The thick, plump hairtail meat is incredibly moist and pairs perfectly with their signature gangdoenjang (strong soybean paste) and fresh wraps.

4. Sunset Hike: Geum Oreum (금오름)

Conclude your day at Geum Oreum, one of Jeju's most accessible and stunning volcanic cones. A 15-minute hike through a lush forest path rewards you with a summit view of a deep crater and a 360-degree panorama of Hallasan Mountain and the surrounding ranches. In autumn, the swaying reeds and clear skies create a speechless landscape that captures the true essence of Jeju's "oreum" culture.
