When to visit

The best time to visit Jeju is during the spring months of April and May when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, or in the fall months of September and October when the weather is mild. Summers can be hot and humid, while winters are cold with occasional snow. Typhoon season typically occurs from July to September, so it's best to avoid these months.

Getting around

Getting around Jeju is easy with a variety of transportation options including rental cars, taxis, buses, and scooters. The island is well-connected by a network of roads, making it convenient to explore. Visitors can also take advantage of guided tours or rent bicycles to explore the scenic coastal roads.

Traveller tips

Make sure to try Jeju's famous black pork BBQ and fresh seafood dishes. It's also recommended to visit the Jeju Folklore and Natural History Museum to learn more about the island's history and culture. Don't forget to pack comfortable walking shoes and sunscreen for outdoor activities. English may not be widely spoken, so it's helpful to learn a few basic Korean phrases. Lastly, be respectful of local customs and traditions, such as removing shoes before entering homes or temples.
