Daecheon Beach대천해수욕장

At a glance

Daecheon's sand runs about 3.5 km and is around 100 m wide, shelving gently into the West Sea, and the beach has drawn holidaymakers since the 1930s, when it began as a resort for foreigners. KTO calls it the largest beach on Korea's west coast. The shore divides into a Sunset Plaza and a Mud Plaza, and each year the Boryeong Mud Festival fills it with mud-themed events. At one end, the Boryeong Mud Experience Center offers mud saunas, heated mud-floored rooms, self-applied mud packs and mud massages.
