AT A GLANCE

Why Jeju for a Anniversary Escape trip

For an anniversary, Jeju combines nature and comfort in a way few Korean destinations can. Book an ocean-view suite in Jungmun, plan a seafood feast of abalone, tilefish and Jeju black pork, and hike part of the Jeju Olle trail along the cliffs. A gentle climb toward the summit of Hallasan or a walk through the island's forests makes an outdoor celebration that contrasts with city milestones.

Jeju is South Korea's volcanic island resort, shaped by the dormant Hallasan volcano, black basalt coasts, waterfalls and lava-tube caves. Its luxury stays are mostly resorts on the warmer south coast, with sea-view suites, golf on the mid-mountain slopes and hiking along coastal walking trails. It offers a relaxed, nature-forward counterpoint to Seoul, an hour's flight away.

When to go: Spring brings yellow canola blossoms and cherry trees, and autumn is mild with silver grass on the volcanic cones. Summer is hot and humid with possible typhoons, and winter is the mildest in Korea, though windy.

JungmunThe south-coast resort zone near Seogwipo holds the island's largest concentration of upscale resorts, beaches and waterfalls.
SeogwipoThe southern city and its surrounding coastline suit travelers who want waterfalls, harbor seafood and access to the Jeju Olle walking trails.
Aewol and Jeju CityOn the north coast, it offers cafes with sea views, quick airport access and a more local atmosphere.
