Mud flats of Bitoseom Island

Bitoseom Island, home of the legend of the Byeoljubujeon
(Korean folk story about a rabbit and soft-shelled turtle)
Winding rias-style coastal line and blue waters
The mudflats cut through and reveal themselves twice a day
And lives
The mud flats of Bitoseom Island are fast becoming a renowned natural eco-tourism destination.

    A place where the legend of the Byeoljubujeon,
    a Korea folk story featuring a rabbit,
    soft-shelled turtle and a dragon king of the sea, thrives!
    The mud flats that connect the two worlds, appearing and disappearing
    twice a day between land and sea, are a treasure trove of natural resources
    and the best place to experience natural ecology.

    Bitoseom Island encountered by chance in Sacheon
    with many renowned tourist destinations has a lyrical landscape,
    as if ‘spring has sneaked into winter’.

Named after the legend that a rabbit flew into the sky using the Chinese characters Bi meaning flying and To meaning rabbit,
Bitoseom Island is also known as the place where the legend of the Byeoljubujeon thrives.
As it is the ‘home of the Byeoljubu’, there are many interesting stories about the islands located in Bitoseom Island,
such as the Rabbit Island that perfectly resembles a rabbit,
Turtle Island with the shape of a turtle lying flatly on the ground and Woldeungdo Island
and Mok Island flow along the stroll paths within the Bitoseom Island.

Bitoseom Island is no longer an island because of a land-island bridge that was constructed 20 years ago.
Accordingly, although Bitoseom Island can be visited at any time, you must visit the Island
in accordance with the correct tides if you wish to see Rabbit Island,
Turtle Island, Mok Island and Woldeungdo Island.

This is because the path connecting Bitoseom Island to other islands open only at low tide.
Why not take your family on an outing to the mud flats of Bitoseom Island, where the legend of Byeoljubujeon is embedded?
