The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Jeju, Jeju Island

May 28, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

Jeju is a hot tourist spot, booming with unique attractions. Romantic sunrises and sunsets, mild climate and beautiful sandy beaches make Jeju a popular honeymoon destination. Adventurers can hike to Baeknok Lake at the top of Mount Halla, South Korea’s highest peak. Keep an eye out for the “haenyeo,” female divers gathering fresh seafood, and the iconic “grandfather statues” displayed outside of many restaurants.

I loved how not only did they have a lot of things on display but also that you could actually use and play with the majority of things they had on display. Time flied and staff was very helpful every time I needed any help. Would go again.

Haenyeo Museum

I would recommend that you read the book “The Island of Sea Women” by Lisa See before visiting the museum. I felt an emotional connection to the museum, the observatory and the grounds around the area, primarily because I had some background knowledge. The museum is well laid out and interesting. Do take the time to watch the video on the main floor before going through the exhibits. If you are there around 10:00 a.m. or 1:00 p.m. you may be able to see the women divers from the observatory on the 3rd floor. Getting there: we were on a cruise ship and took a taxi from the ship terminal in Jeju City. It took about an hour and was a very scenic drive. Our taxi driver gave us an hour to tour the museum and grounds and then dropped us off by the main market area in downtown Jeju City. It was under $100 for four people in a taxi.

Dongmun Market

Reviewed By OngSY87

Is a must visit to this market. Parking spot is very hidden. Lots of street food, souvenirs, tangerines, chocolate, fresh fish availables. Jungang Underground Shopping Center and Chilsungro Shopping Town is also next to this market. (near to entrance 4) Lots of people buying chocolates from the stall located at the intersection between entrance 3 and entrance 7. (probably the biggest stall and cheapest?)
