Hello everyone :)
I'm Saera Joy, your family travel curator, based in Yeongjongdo and exploring
island destinations ⛵️.
I recently embarked on a family trip to
JEJUDO with my baby and parents.
We boldly cut down on complicated plans and
opted for a light and flexible one-day itinerary.

This JEJU trip aimed for
‘an itinerary comfortable for everyone’.

And most importantly, it was a day filled with smiles throughout the trip.
📍 Shinhwa Theme Park Lava World Express
38 Shinhwayeoksaro 304beon-gil, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do.
We stopped by casually since it was next to our accommodation,
but honestly, for toddlers, the rides and attractions are quite limited,
And since it's an outdoor-focused theme park,
the scorching heat really drained our energy.

📍 Yongmeori Coast
112-3 Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
After traveling by car, the air felt noticeably cooler,
likely because we were so close to the ocean.
The Yongmeori Coast, with its stunning sea cliffs,
immediately greeted us with a refreshing burst of cool air the moment we arrived.
📍 Location:
112-3 Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju
📷 Recommended Photo Spots:
With Sanbangsan Mountain in the background / "Life Shot" (stunning photo) with the ocean + unique rock formations
Our child woke up from a nap and enjoyed the walk,
and my parents also got to take a breather, enjoying the sea breeze.
✔️ Recommend visiting in the morning during peak summer
✔️ Strollers cannot enter.
⭐️ Make sure to bring a baby carrier.
For a detailed review of this spot,

In this post, I'll just share the overall
vibe and atmosphere.
📸 For family photos, standing with Sanbangsan Mountain at your back,
or capturing a "life shot" (stunning photo) with the unique rock formations + sea view
– highly recommended!
There are so many spots where you can snap
amazing photos for your Instagram feed.
📍 Sanbangsan Land
117-2 Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
📍 Sanbangsan Land Viking
117-2 Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
📍 Location:
117-2 Sagye-ri, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju
🎠 Small Amusement Park
(Features animal feeding, a Viking ride, and more)
Sanbangsan Land might be small in scale,
but it was actually the perfect choice for families
with young children to explore.
We were drawn in by the excited cheers
of children echoing from afar,
and it turned out to be just perfect for about 30 minutes of fun.
✔️ Animal feeding, rail sledding, etc.
✔️ If you park at Yongmeori Coast,
it's recommended to explore with free admission.
📍 Sagye Bada Whole Cutlassfish Stew & Grill, Jeju Sanbangsan Branch
1F, 26 Hyeongjehaean-ro, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (Sagye Bada)
📍 Restaurant Address:
1F, 26 Hyeongjehaean-ro, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju
🅿️ Parking:
Dedicated restaurant parking available
⏰ Opening Hours:
10:00~22:50 / No break time
Late in the afternoon, when everyone's stomachs were rumbling,
we stopped by a specialty whole cutlassfish restaurant near Sagye Beach,
<Sagye Bada Jeju Sanbang Branch>.
👵 My parents couldn't put their spoons down from the rich, savory broth,
👶 and the baby happily ate the baby food we brought, making for an easy meal.
💰 For a family of three, choosing a set menu costs
around ~$62-~$83.
While not overly expensive for a restaurant in a Jeju tourist area,
it's still a price that makes you ponder a little for one meal.
But to enjoy both braised and grilled cutlassfish at once, you've got to be prepared for this, right? Haha!
📍 Jeju Olle Trail Route 10
1-7 Sangmo-ri, Daejeong-eup, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
📍 Sagye Port
13 Hyeongjehaean-ro, Andeok-myeon, Seogwipo-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province
After our meal, we felt it would be a shame to just leave,
so we took a short stroll along the coastal road in front of the restaurant.
The sky was dyed crimson, the waves were gentle,
and in the breeze, the fatigue of the day seemed to melt away.
The baby fell asleep in the stroller,
and my parents relaxed on a bench.
✔️ Just a 2-minute walk from the restaurant, no need to travel to another spot
✔️ A definite emotional boost around sunset!
A day that was even better for its simplicity
