Explore Haeundae Beach, Dongbaek Island and Marine City in Busan, with subway access, weather alternatives and Korean addresses for each stop.
Who this trip suits
Choose Haeundae for beach views and coastal walks. Leave time to sit by the sea, and consider staying for the evening scenery if the weather is good.
Getting around
Haeundae or Dongbaek station on Busan Metro Line 2 can be your starting point. From Busan railway station, allow time for transfers and walking. Check your actual route in a transit app.
Suggested stops
A flexible order of stops. Transfers, tickets and reservations are not included; choose fewer stops if your travel time is limited.

Before you go
- Haeundae and Gwangalli are different beaches. Check the location and dates of any festival separately.
- A walk around Dongbaek Island is different from admission to Nurimaru APEC House. Check building closures and local access notices.
