  • Oryukdo Islets: Stories of the sea1
The emerald sea where the East Sea and the South Sea meet. There are five islands—sometimes six—seen on the brilliant blue rug.
The coastal waters of Oryukdo Islets are enough to fascinate visitors.

Oryukdo Islets, which is well-known as one of the most beautiful islands in Busan, refers to a group of rocky islands off Yongho-dong, Nam-gu, Busan. It has been designated as Busan National Geopark in recognition of its geological value: rock formed through volcanic activities 80 million years ago. In addition, it is a marine sanctuary, where protected marine creatures live, and also state-designated cultural heritage.

Oryukdo Islets are composed of Bangpaeseom Island, Solseom Island, Suriseom Island, Songgotseom Island, Gulseom Island, and Deungdaeseom Island, in order of proximity to the land. The name comes from the five (“o”) islands seen at low tide and the six (“ryuk”) islands at high tide. Deungdaeseom Island, the farthest island, has the Oryukdo Lighthouse, and it is the only one accessible to people among those islands. The Lighthouse serves as a gateway to Busanhang Port, which ships entering Busan must pass by.

The Oryukdo Public Information Center is located at the entrance of the Sunrise Park.

It is an inevitable course to take an unforgettable picture of your children with Oryugi, the mascot of Oryukdo Islets in the photo zone.
