Seogwipo stretches along Jeju Island's volcanic southern coast, where waterfalls drop straight into the sea and citrus orchards climb toward Hallasan in the distance. It trades the bustle of Jeju City for a slower, subtropical pace built around cliffside walks, tangerine farms and the UNESCO-listed coastline.
