Dalmaji Road (해운대 달맞이길): What to See and How to Get There

One memory that sticks with me from Dalmaji Road (해운대 달맞이길) is the stunning view of the sunrise casting golden hues over the sea. This coastal road, stretching about 8 kilometers, connects Haeundae Beach with Songjeong Beach. It’s a popular spot for both locals and tourists looking to enjoy beautiful seaside vistas.

What is Dalmaji Road (해운대 달맞이길) exactly?

Dalmaji Road is a scenic coastal route lined with cherry and pine trees, good for leisurely drives or peaceful walks. The path includes notable landmarks like the Haewoljeong Pavilion and Dalmaji Hill, where you can catch breathtaking views of Cheongsa Port and the surrounding waters. The area has several cafés, restaurants, and galleries that enhance the experience.

Is it worth the trip?

Absolutely. Morning visits offer tranquility, allowing you to savor the beauty without large crowds. In my experience, witnessing sunrise here was a highlight; it’s a peaceful start to any day. On the flip side, evenings bring an entirely different charm as moonrise casts a romantic glow over the coast.

The only downside is parking can be tricky during peak times on weekends, so arriving early might be wise if you want to snag a good spot near one of the pavilions. But once you’re settled in, there’s plenty of space to explore along this picturesque road. Would you agree?

How to plan your visit

Dalmaji Road is open 24 hours a day, which gives you flexibility in planning your trip. you’ll find it accessible year-round without any admission fees.

Between you and me, if you’re relying on public transport, check out bus routes that connect to Haeundae area; it’s quite convenient. Alternatively, if you’re driving, note that parking facilities are available nearby but can fill up quickly during busy times.

What I would do differently next time

If I’m being honest, I wish I had planned for more time at each stop along Dalmaji Road. Next time, I’ll definitely take advantage of one of the cafés overlooking the sea — sipping coffee while soaking in those views sounds too good to pass up! Have you ever found yourself rushing through beautiful locations? Sometimes slowing down makes all the difference.
