Overview

Nagwoldo refers to the two islands of Sangnagwoldo and Hanagwoldo. The two islands feature a mix of sandy beaches and pebble beaches, where visitors can enjoy swimming or mudflat experiences. Additionally, the Jindali Trail connects Sangnagwol Pier to Hanagwol Pier; as the slopes are not steep, even the elderly and children can trek along the path. The shrimp and blue crabs caught in this region are famous for their taste. Passenger ferries operate three times a day from Hyanghwado to Sangnagwoldo, taking approximately one hour.
