Jindo Island is the principal island among the cluster of 230 islets in the southwestern part of the Korean peninsula. The island is blessed with abundant fertile land, therefore much of it is used for agriculture. The sea around it is teeming with fish and wildlife.
The island has many park reserves like the Dadohaehaesang National Park, historical relics and sites; and visitors can enjoy traditional artistic performances everywhere. With the Jindo Bridge construction completed, the island is connected to the mainland. Every year during the month of February on the lunar calendar, the sea parts and mimics the parting of the sea by Moses. Many tourists come to watch this rare spectacle.
