Dongbaekseom, located at the western end of Haeundae Beach in Busan, is a scenic coastal park where forest paths meet panoramic ocean views.

Despite its name meaning “Camellia Island,” Dongbaekseom is now connected to the mainland, forming a peaceful walking trail that curves along rocky cliffs and the edge of the sea.

The path weaves through camellia trees and pine groves before opening to dramatic vistas of Gwangan Bridge, Marine City’s skyline, and the vast East Sea. The contrast between natural greenery and modern high-rises creates a uniquely Busan atmosphere.

At the tip of the island stands Nurimaru APEC House, a modern pavilion built for the 2005 APEC Summit, symbolizing Busan’s global presence.

Sunrise and sunset transform Dongbaekseom into a cinematic stage. Golden light washes over the water while city towers begin to glow in the distance.

More than a simple park, Dongbaekseom represents balance — where urban energy and coastal calm exist side by side.

Whether you walk for relaxation, photography, or a panoramic perspective of Busan’s coastline, Dongbaekseom offers a compact yet unforgettable ocean experience.
