Sinduri Beach features a pristine silica sand shore that stretches endlessly, measuring 3 km in length and 200 m in width. To the right of the beach lies the vast, desert-like Sinduri Coastal Sand Dune, one of Korea's most famous dunes.

Believed to have formed gradually over approximately 15,000 years, the dunes were created over time as sand carried by strong winds accumulated along the coastline. The Sinduri Coastal Sand Dune is also renowned as the largest habitat of rugosa roses in the country.

The flowers bloom from May to July, and by August, the plants bear red fruits, offering another beautiful sight.

4 Kkotji Beach

With a wide 5 km long sandy beach and clear blue sea, Kkotji Beach offers a refreshing, expansive view that welcomes visitors. The beach is named "Kkotji" as the area is adorned with abundant rugosa roses that bloom along the shore.

Renowned as one of the best sunset spots in Taean, Kkotji Beach offers a stunning view of the sun setting in brilliant red behind Halbaebawi and Halmaebawi Rocks, creating a breathtaking scene reminiscent of a scroll of Oriental painting. Unlike many beaches that are crowded only during the summer, Kkotji Beach attracts visitors year-round.
