Who says spring is only for flower viewing

I insist on going to see the sea 🌊 📍: Aewol-eup 🚌: Bus route 202 is the best choice 🎫: 2,400 KRW (for two people) ⚠️: After 5 PM, there are more people returning, so you might not be able to get on the bus. Plan your time wisely. Aewol-eup is located on the west coast of Jeju Island. Rather than calling it a tourist attraction, it's more like a coastal area. Because of its numerous coffee shops, many tourists consider it an ideal spot for lazy travelers to check in. Aewol-eup is quite large, and I can't really say where the starting or ending point is. From downtown, I highly recommend taking the 🚌. The journey isn't as long as you might imagine. There are many stops along the way, but the driver won't stop unless passengers are getting on or off, so our one-hour bus ride took less than 50 minutes. Take bus 202 to Hamdomdong (there will be English announcements). After getting off, walk forward a bit until you reach a downhill slope. Go straight down and you'll see the famous "jelly sea," which is more of a jade-blue color. Since my trip to Nice, I've rarely seen such blue waters. The weather wasn't on our side, with waves crashing one after another, and all I could think was "surfing in this weather must be amazing!" Walking east along the coastline, you'll pass a stretch of black reef rocks that look like chocolate chips broken by giants (the blackness of these rocks rivals those at Seopjikoji 🌚). With the biting wind and rolling waves, my collar was already filled with damp, cold air—it truly felt like being caught by the sea's grip. Some say Aewol-eup is just a "pretty cafe Instagram spot." Others say it's not suitable to visit on cloudy days. Weather is beyond our control, and both cloudy and sunny days have their own surprises. Rather than posing with coffee for perfect grid photos, spending time watching the waves stirred up by the sea breeze is much more interesting.
