Skating in South Korea
Introduction to Skating on Jeju Island |
Jeju Island (also called Cheju Island) is located off the South Coast of Korea, and it is a favorite holiday and honeymoon destination for Asian travelers. The island has a special beauty that is similar to the Hawaiian Islands in many ways. The island's scenic beauty and opportunities for outdoor activities are starting to attract adventure travelers from all over the world. Some of the most popular activities are cycling, inline skating, scuba diving, hiking, and kayaking. About Skating on Jeju Island Jeju Island is good for skating year round, with a relatively hot summer, warm spring and autumn, and a short mild winter. During the warmer months skaters like to skate along the seaside, stopping at different beaches for a swim. During the different seasons, skaters can enjoy different landscapes along the very same route. From November thorugh February you can skate through tangerine orchards and in the springtime skaters will see a blaze of colorful flowers everywere. Summer and Autumn are perfect for skating along the shore and relaxing, swimming, snorkling, and diving on the beach. Skating Events Special skating events are held on Jeju Island such as the International Skating Marathon, held in March of 2002. There is a new skating track on the island, so you can expect to see more formal competitions on Jeju in the future.
