Black Sand Beach near Seongsan on Jeju offers dramatic contrast: basalt rock lines, dark sand, and often moody seas. Best photos come with rough surf at sunrise or near sunset when low light skims the sand and rocks. Expect changing weather—bring a rain layer and lens protection. Access is simple with nearby parking, but tides and waves can be strong.
