Geommeolle Beach is a very small beach, reaching only about 100m in total length, with a name literally translating to "black sand" in Jeju dialects. The nearly all-grey beach will look strange at first, but soon visitors eyes will adjust and they will begin to pick out where the cliff and rocks end and the sandy shore begins, all in various shades of grey. It is very tiny in size but a charmingly attractive destination for both travelers wanting some quiet time and extreme sports-enthusiasts seeking fun maritime activities along the seashore. The place also displays an amazing view of the sunrise over the Jeju sea, making the beach a destination worth visiting.
