The day begins with the ocean: wind pushing a line of fishing boats across a hard blue, gulls arguing over scraps, and the guide’s van folding onto Jongdal-ri shore road where racks of squid flutter like paper kites. On Jeju, the coastline acts like a calendar — each promontory records eruptions and tides. A private guide steers the day to your pace, whether that means an early scramble to Seongsan Ilchulbong’s grassy ridge or a slow, coffee-stretched stop at Wojeongri café beach.
