When to go

There is no weekly closing day here — you can come any day of the week.

This is an open area rather than a ticketed site, so there are no opening hours to work around. Early morning and late evening are the quietest.

What it costs, and what to bring

Entry is free. The island is free; Wave Park surfing and the Mio Costa water zone are ticketed — prices on wavepark.co.kr Nothing needs to be booked or queued for in advance.

Cards are accepted. Foreign Visa and Mastercard work almost everywhere in Korea, and contactless is normal.

English signage is partial — enough to find your way, not enough to explain what you are looking at. The Korean name above is worth showing to a taxi driver or a passer-by; it works better than pronouncing it.

Getting there

There is no subway station close by. A taxi or an intercity bus is usually the way in — show the Korean name above to the driver.
