"The beach first opened in 1965, and was the largest beach in the country at the time. The sandy portion of the beach is 1.46 kilometres (0.91 mi) long and 40 m (130 ft) wide. It has a parking lot that is handicap accessible.

Haeundae Beach is still considered one of the most famous beaches in Korea, attracting over 10 million visitors every season. The beach is open year-round. Various festivals are held there throughout the year, including the Polar Bear Club, held annually in January since 1988, in which participants bathe in near-freezing water. There is also Haeundae Sand Festival, the only sand-related eco-festival in Korea, which features beautiful sand creations and exciting programs for visitors."
