Jebudo

Jebudo (제부도) is a small island located in the Yellow Sea, part of South Korea's Gyeonggi Province, specifically within Hwaseong City. The island is connected to the mainland by a road that is submerged during high tide, creating a sea road phenomenon. This phenomenon is a major tourist attraction, drawing visitors who wish to experience walking or driving across the seabed during low tide.

Access to Jebudo is primarily determined by the tidal schedule. During high tide, the road is underwater and inaccessible, isolating the island. Travelers should consult the tidal forecasts to plan their visit accordingly.

The island itself offers various activities and attractions, including beaches, hiking trails, seafood restaurants, and cultural experiences. The main industries on Jebudo are tourism and fishing.

Historically, Jebudo was a relatively isolated community. However, with the construction of the sea road, tourism has significantly increased, contributing to the island's economic development. Efforts have been made to preserve the natural environment and cultural heritage of Jebudo while accommodating the growing influx of visitors.
