YEOSU SHORE EXCURSION: MARITIME CABLE CAR, ODONGDO ISLAND & HYANGILAM

Yeosu is a pretty port city on Korea's south coast, known for its islands, seafood and the hero Admiral Yi Sun-sin.

The route (about 6 hours)

• The Maritime Cable Car, which crosses the sea to Dolsan island. There are glass-floor cabins if you dare.
• Odongdo, a small island reached by a long breakwater walk (or a little train), covered in camellia trees that flower red in early spring.
• Yi Sun-sin Square, with a full-size model of the famous armoured turtle ship.
• Hyangilam, a hermitage built into the rocks above the sea. Many steps.

Lunch on seafood. Yeosu is known for gat kimchi, made with mustard leaves.
