Hi, I’m Tabi!

Pair Mokpo’s coastal rock formations with a natural-history museum visit. Watch for wind and wet surfaces, and stay within open visitor areas.

This guide covers places within Mokpo City, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Gatbawi Rock

Look for the two hat-shaped rocks beside the sea. Observe the weathered surfaces from the visitor route without touching or climbing them. The image dates from 2011; check weather and restrictions before using the over-water walkway.

Getting there

What could you try?

VisitKorea lists Mokpo Fishery Market. Distinguish shopping stalls from places that prepare meals, and ask about cooking services and prices. Check ingredients and allergens before choosing raw or fermented seafood.
