With almost no artificial structures and mostly composed of the natural coastline, it's a great section to immerse yourself in the scenery.
Small ports, uninhabited rocky beaches, and flocks of seagulls encountered along the way showcase the inherent charm of the Yeongdeok sea in its unrefined form.
Sometimes, you might feel like you're the only one on the secluded path, and looking back, you might experience moments of quiet contemplation as the waves and wind seem to erase your footprints.
