Jungmun Beach

Jungmun Beach is a semi-enclosed bay on Jeju Island's south coast, facing south toward open ocean. The crescent-shaped sandy beach is protected by headlands on both sides, creating a natural amphitheater effect. The bay experiences relatively sheltered conditions compared to exposed Korean coastlines, with sandy bottom and gradual slope suitable for beginners. Wave heights average under 1 meter, and the rough-chop water type suggests wind-driven conditions rather than swell-dependent. Rocky areas visible on the eastern headland and harbor infrastructure on the right require awareness of launch and landing zones. Best conditions occur with easterly winds (side-shore), though the 2.5% wind reliability indicates this is primarily a fair-weather spot. The protected bay setting makes this suitable for novice kiters developing fundamentals, though limited wind consistency may restrict session frequency. Local facilities and beach access are evident from the developed surrounding area.
