Donggeomdo is a small island with an area of 1.61㎢, located south of Ganghwado. It is connected to Seondu-ri, Gilsang-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, via a land bridge, so it can be easily reached by car from Ganghwado. The name 'Donggeomdo (東檢島)' originates from its historical role as an eastern checkpoint where ships traveling from the three southern provinces to Hanyang, or merchants plying between China and Korea, would pass through. The island features a mountainous center, while the northeastern and western coasts have relatively gentle slopes. Vast tidal flats spread around the island, creating dramatic scenery at low tide, and reed fields thrive along the harbor. With a coastline of 6.95km, Donggeomdo is quite famous for camping, car camping, and sea fishing. Several pensions and campsites line the southwestern coast, and a parking lot for car camping is available at Donggeom Ferry Dock on the eastern tip. With fewer visitors than nearby Ganghwado and Seokmodo, you can enjoy peaceful rest while listening to the sound of the waves. Donggeom Leisure Sea Fishing Spot, on the southeast of the island, yields a variety of fish such as rockfish, red seabream, croaker, and longtooth grouper, making it ideal for family fishing trips. DRFA365 Art Theater, on the northeast of the island, is a cinema that screens art films year-round and stands as a representative tourist attraction of the island. It selects masterpieces that have left a lasting mark on film history and shows 1 to 3 films daily. (Source: Incheon Tour)
