Haeundae Beach


Last Saturday Katie and I decided to finally go to Busan. We took a cab to the bus stop, then took a bus into Busan, and from there took the subway all the way to Haeundae Beach. Of the beaches in Busan, Haeundae is the most popular, and is widely considered to be the "best" beach in all Korea. During the high season it attracts millions of people from all over Korea and, we have been warned, is best to be avoided. But on Saturday it was really beautiful, and though the weather wasn't hot, it was warm enough to make the beach enjoyable.






We also saw the Busan Aquarium, the largest in Korea. It is located right along the beach. $15 apiece was a bit steep for what the aquarium had to offer, but it was still a lot of fun. For and extra $10 you can scuba dive in the enormous shark tank (pictured). However, we chose to forgo this option...
