Namhae Island and Boseong Green Tea Fields 2020
SummerSummer is right around the corner so take advantage of the lovely sunny weather, and travel to the beautiful island of Namhae, and explore the stunning Green Tea Fields at Boseong.
Situated on the south coast, Namhae, often referred to as Treasure Island, is home to some of the most stunning scenery in Korea. This small, yet beautiful island has amazing crystal clear blue water, white sandy beaches and pine covered mountains. Still largely unspoiled, you can see traditional rice terraces scattered throughout the island. The beaches are among the prettiest in Korea, and are far less busy and commercialized than some of the others.
Enjoy Korea’s trip offers you the best of Namhae Island. We’ll be staying at the beautiful Sangju beach, visiting Daerangi Village which feels like you’ve been time warped into the past with it’s walk through the rice terraces down to the sea. Another one of Namhae’ fabulous sites, is the mountain top temple Geumsan Boriam, we’ll visit during sunrise for an amazing spiritual experience…. If you’d rather have a long lie, that’s cool too.
We offer you the option of staying in a Pension (guesthouse) 1 minute from the beach, or for those wanting to keep it al fresco you can camp alongside the beach.
You can spend your evening chilling on the beach with a few drinks, making new friends.
After check-out on Sunday morning we’ll travel to the Boseong Green Tea Fields. Korea has a long history of planting tea and the green fields of Boseong are among it’s most famous. The plantations have been used as backdrops for many movies and TV shows and provide a beautiful setting for a chilled Sunday.
Spend the day strolling along the tree lined landscape, which are some of Korea’s most beautiful tree-lined vistas. There are approximately 20 tea fields in the Boseong area, views of the entire plantation can be seen from the Dahyanggak Pavilion. And of course, don’t forget to taste some of the tea in one of the local tea shops, or sample the green tea ice-cream. In addition to the tea fields there’s also a stunning Bamboo forest to explore which makes for some amazing photos.
