magical beach, especially at night, where u can see Gwangan Bridge light up by colorful lights and fireworks from the boats below. right now, they also have a drone show every Saturday that have different themes and it’s really beautiful.

Really like the beach, not sure if it is the best to me but definitely in the top two Busan beaches. As it was out of the season, difficult to say how busy can be there. Itself is quite long, great for a walk also there is plenty of branches to rest. Really recommend to visit if you are in Busan.

One of the top busan beaches and in my opinion the best. I don't know about the sea because I didn't go in the season you can enjoy the beach like in summer but no doubts I had one of my best times here... At night, Friday and Saturday you can see people singing, buskers, people enjoying, beautiful lights and if you're lucky even fireworks when you enjoy the view... It is magical, I think the bridge is so beautiful... I went for pepero day which is a very romantic day so I think that colored my experience even more. No doubt that in the daytime Busan beaches are so beautiful too.

Beautiful view of the bridge. Nice beach, with a sea sidewalk. Many places to eat, take pictures and to enjoy the day.
-
The most outstanding feature for this beach is the bridge that adds details to the views one can get. Lighting makes the view of the bridge from the shore even more beautiful but with a good sunset and clear skys too, photos can appear really epic. In general i think it is way more beautiful than Haeundae but that is a personal take!
