The monthly average temperature of Cheonsuman Bay area between October and March is about 1.2 degree Celsius higher than inland areas with same latitude because of its oceanic climate. Such geographical conditions have made Cheonsuman Bay an ideal wintering site for migratory birds.

As a result, Cheonsuman Bay has become home to nearly 200 different species of migratory birds that can be watched all year round.
