외단도의 사랑의 자물쇠


The chief attraction here is a large salt-water swimming pool, with love seats, walking trails and gardens. This lighthouse has been newly refurbished with new stairs, viewing platform, and a special grid specifically for love padlocks. The wired grid is on the seaward side of the lighthouse and has a special box for the keys after locking the lock.

There is regular ferry service to this island, but there are only a few local residents except for the months of July and August when many tourists visit. A day trip is the most common, but there is a traditional inn for those who want to stay overnight. Reservations are necessary during the busy season.

There is also a nice swimming beach just north of the lighthouse, but observe warning signs for a few dangerous areas off the rocks.
