Every year in April, Gwangalli Beach becomes the venue for the Gwangalli Eobang Festival. This festival reconstructs the customs and warm memories of traditional fishing villages with a variety of events and programs. The most eye-catching are the “Draw-in the Eobang Net” and “Jin Du Eo Hwa” programs. With the use of torchlight, the “Jin Du Eo Hwa” program restores the traditional fishing method of the past. Flaming torches floating on Gwangalli waters is a magnificent sight to witness. The “Draw-in the Eobang Net” program uses a giant fishing net and encourages visitors to join. There is also the “Catch Live Fishes by Hand” program, which invites anyone of any age as long as they are willing to roll up their pants and wade through the water in the fish tank. Freshly caught fish can be cooked and enjoyed on the spot! Don’t forget to join in on the traditional folk games, enjoy the many foods, and at the end of the night, catch the fireworks show that decorates the night sky over the Gwangalli Beach.
