    4. Traveler tips

    • Navigate to the port, fish market, beach or Hyangho photo stop separately instead of assuming the broad word 'Jumunjin' reaches the intended place.
    • Stay behind port barriers and give forklifts, trucks, fishers and wet working surfaces priority over sightseeing photographs.
    • Ask the price, weight, preparation fee and dine-in arrangement before ordering seafood because display, cooking and table charges can be separate.
    • Search “주문진항” in Naver Map or Kakao Map and confirm the entrance before leaving.
    • Opening hours, prices and payment methods vary by vendor; confirm before ordering.
    • The catalogue pin is approximate. Use the linked Korean map search for the final walking route.
