A chance to beat the heat and escape the pollution on a one-day tour from Incheon harbor to beautiful Jawol Island for a day of fun in the sun.
A hydrofoil will take the party from Incheon to the island (a journey of about 50 minutes), where a picnic lunch on a beautiful sandy beach will be held.
This is a wonderful beach for swimming and sunning, but for those interested in testing the waters, appropriate swimming wear will be required.
If you want to hike, there is about a 2-hour hiking course around a small mountain.
Please ensure that RAS office staff has all the names and passport numbers of all members of your party, as this is a local police requirement for travel by boat.
Remember your swimwear, suntan lotion, and towels for the beach, and if you want to hike, your hiking shoes for the hills.
The beaches are always popular at this time of year, so space is limited. Please sign up for your spot as soon as possible.
