Jukdo Beach
A long, gently-sloping sand beach in Yangyang, the hub of South Korea's domestic surf industry. WannaSurf catalogues it as a beginner-friendly beach break with a handful of dedicated surf shops and schools lining the sand. It sits a few minutes up the coast from Ingu Beach, and the two share the same swell window.
