Gyeokpo Port (격포항)

Gyeokpo Port is an important transit point for maritime transportation between the islands of the West Sea, such as Wido Island, Gogunsan Islands, and Hongdo Island. As a fishing port, it is known as the place through which delicious seafood from the clean waters of the West Sea arrives on land. This reputation is evident in the huge crowds of gourmands and tourists who flock to the port for webfoot octopus in spring and gizzard shad in fall. The port hauls large catches of webfoot octopus, cuttlefish, blue crab, monkfish, rockfish, spotty belly greenling, flatfish, gizzard shad, clam, and shellfish, which can be enjoyed in many seafood restaurants near the port. Gyeokpo Port is also known for its beautiful view of the sunset.
