Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
Visit early morning (before 9am) to avoid crowds and secure a good spot on the sand
Bring water shoes — the sand gets scorching hot by midday in summer
The Sea Life Busan Aquarium is a 5-minute walk — great afternoon escape from sun
Pack a picnic lunch — beachside restaurants are pricey with long queues
Free public showers are available near the main entrance — rinse off before heading home

A Real Parent's Story
The shark tunnel that cured my 4-year-old fear
“He clung to my leg at entrance. By the tunnel he was pressing face against glass.”
Read full story
My youngest feared big fish. The touch pool with starfish was our gateway. Then penguins. By the shark tunnel he was pointing and naming every fish. We spent 3 hours and he cried when we left.
