Udo Island

Udo Island is an island located off the eastern shore 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 through the means of farming and fishing.

Udo Island is the biggest island among the many islands that surround Jejudo Island. Its lands are fertile, 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 the women divers, stone streets, stone tombs and very similar traditional culture and natural environments. If you go to the top of island, Udobong Peak, you can see the entire island of Jeju including Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak (a famous spot for sunrises). Toward the northern shores of Jeju Island, two of the harbor areas and the seashore area have been designated as Udo Maritime Park in order to protect the natural environment and promote tourism.

You can enjoy fishing all over the island. Touring the island can be done comfortably by bicycle and takes between 2-3 hours.
