There are several ways to get to Daebudo Island from Seoul, depending on your preference and budget. Here are some of the options:
- By car: This is the best way to explore the island, as you can drive around and see different attractions at your own pace. However, you will need to rent a car in Korea if you don't have one. The driving distance from Seoul to Daebudo Island is about 70 km, and it takes around an hour and a half, depending on the traffic. You can use a navigation app or a map to find the best route for you.
- By subway and bus: This is the cheapest and most convenient way to get to Daebudo Island if you don't have a car. You can take the subway line 4 to Oido Station, and then take bus 30-2 from exit 1 or 2 to the Oido Ocean Complex. The bus ride takes about 25 minutes, and you can walk around the boardwalk and see the ocean views. From there, you can take another bus 123 to Daebudo Island, which takes about 40 minutes. The bus will stop at different places on the island, such as the Sihwa Embankment Moon Observatory Centre, the Daebudo Glass Island, and the Windmill Park. You can get off at any stop you like and explore the island.
- By train and bus: This is another option if you want to enjoy a scenic train ride along the coast. You can take the train from Seoul Station or Yongsan Station to Choji Station, which takes about an hour and a half. From there, you can take bus 123 from exit 1 to Daebudo Island, which takes about an hour. The bus will stop at the same places as the bus from Oido Station, so you can choose where to get off and see the island.
I hope this helps you plan your trip to Daebudo Island.
