Udo Island Ferry Guide (2026): Car Conditions & Prices

An unmissable gem of an island on your Jeju trip,

Udo (우도)!

This was my second time visiting Udo

since my university days.

So, instead of a day trip, I decided to stay overnight on Udo

and leisurely explore every corner of the island.

When heading to Udo, I took a ferry from Seongsanpo Port Passenger Terminal (성산포항 종합여객터미널)

and arrived at Haumokdong Port (하우목동항).

Q. Can I bring a rental car to Udo?

Q. How much is the ferry fare?

Q. What documents do I need to fill out?

I've compiled all the essential information that people often wonder about

when planning a trip to Udo, making it easy to see at a glance.

Udo Rental Car Entry Conditions - Udo Overnight Stay Tips

As a rule, general rental car entry to Udo is restricted

to prevent traffic congestion and protect the environment.

However, there are specific conditions under which

vehicles can be brought onto the ferry.

📍I stayed overnight at a pension within Udo this time,

so I was able to legally bring my rental car over.

With a rental car, you can immediately unload your heavy luggage

at your accommodation and truly enjoy the tranquil sunset, the night sea

after the day-trippers have receded like the tide,

and a relaxing morning drive.

If you're planning an overnight stay, make sure to save your accommodation voucher.

How to Enter Udo for Pedestrian Travelers

If you're not using a rental car,

you can board the ferry as a pedestrian without a vehicle.

✔️First, park your vehicle at the Seongsanpo Port (성산포항) parking lot.

​

< Parking Fees >

- First 30 minutes: Free

- 30-45 minutes: ₩1,000 (~$1) (₩500 (~$0) for every additional 15 minutes)

- Daily maximum: ₩8,000 (~$6)

If your itinerary involves entering in the morning and leaving in the afternoon,

you can expect the daily parking fee to be ₩8,000 (~$6).

✔️First, use Udo's local transportation options.

When you get off the ferry, you'll find various

rental shops and bus stops right in front of the port.

Udo Village Circulation Bus (우도 마을 순환버스)

​

There's a tour bus that circles major tourist spots (Geommeolle (검멀레), Seobinbaeksa (서빈백사), Hagusudong (하고수동), etc.)

clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on odd-numbered days and even-numbered months.

Electric Three-Wheeler, Electric Scooter, Electric Bicycle

These are great ways to move freely and feel the Udo breeze.

(Note! A driver's license is required for three-wheelers and scooters!)

Essential Checks Before Buying Tickets: How to Fill Out the Boarding Declaration Form & What to Prepare

When you arrive at Seongsanpo Port Passenger Terminal (성산포항 여객터미널),

the first thing you need to do before buying your ticket is head to the declaration desk.

​

​

🔸You MUST fill out two copies of the boarding declaration form!

· One for going (to Udo), one for returning (to Seongsan (성산)). Please fill out a total of two forms at the tables before heading to the ticket office.

🔸ID is mandatory. (Required for everyone)

· Adults: Resident Registration Card, Driver's License, Passport, Mobile ID

· Minors and Infants: Students need a Student ID;

others need a Resident Registration Copy or Family Relations Certificate

· If you don't have one, you can get it issued using the unmanned civil affairs issuance machine

inside the terminal.

You can just keep using the documents you brought when you flew to Jeju anyway.

​

​

🔸Presenting Supporting Documents

· If you're loading a rental car, please present the boarding declaration form and

necessary documents to the counter staff.

(e.g., accommodation reservation confirmation, maternity handbook, etc.)

Seongsanpo Port Departure - Hahomokdong Port (하우목동항) Arrival Review

I heard that ferries departing from Seongsanpo Port usually alternate between Cheonjin Port (천진항) and Hahomokdong Port. This time, I arrived at Hahomokdong Port.

Ferry services usually run frequently, every 30 minutes, starting from around 7:30 AM to 8:00 AM.

The journey takes approximately 10-15 minutes.

After purchasing your ticket, follow the vehicle guiding lines, and staff members will direct you to reverse your car into the car ferry according to their signals.

You can stay in your car, but if you're prone to seasickness, it's generally recommended to get out and go up to the passenger deck.

❗When is the last ferry?

Whether you're on a day trip or leaving after an overnight stay, the last ferry departing from Udo (우도) to Seongsan (성산)

varies depending on the season and sunset time.

Typically, it changes between 5 PM and 6:30 PM.

​

We recommend checking the last ferry time for your departure date in advance.

​

Thanks to bringing our rental car with us,

we comfortably explored Hagosudong Beach (하고수동 해수욕장),

Geommeolle Beach (검멀레 해변), and even Biyangdo (비양도) with our luggage left in the car

before heading to our accommodation.

It was a fantastic overnight trip to Udo, with even the weather being perfect!

In the next post, I'll thoroughly share the activities I did in Udo,

along with recommended accommodations and great restaurants.
