  PCT-1 Jeju Island Tour
Jeju Island, also known as the "Island of the Gods," is a popular vacation spot for Koreans and many Japanese. It remains one of the top honeymoon destinations for Korean newlyweds. The island's mixture of volcanic rock, frequent rains, and temperate climate, make it very similar to the Hawaiian Islands in the U.S. The island offers visitors a wide range of activities: hiking on Halla-san (South Korea's highest peak), catching sunrises and sunsets over the ocean, viewing majestic waterfalls, riding horses, or just lying around on the sandy beaches.
Although tourism is one of the main industries on the island, many of the hotels and other tourist areas are run by mainland companies, so much of the income never gets put back into the local economy. Also, since the attractions are geared towards tourists, many of the entrance fees can be hefty (although the locally owned and operated ones tend to be cheaper). Similar to Gyeongju and some other areas, local residents can enter most places for free or for a steeply discounted price.

  PCT-3 Hongdo Island
Designated as part of the Dadohae Maritime National Park, Hongdo Island is an ecological treasure house, and the natural habitat of approximately 270 types of plants and 170 species of animals. Since the entire island is designated as a natural monument, taking a single clump of grass or stone is prohibited by law. There are two possible reasons for the name Hongdo, or ¡°Red Island.¡± One reason may be the island¡¯s reddish brown-colored earth and rocks and the other is that the whole island takes on a reddish hue at sunset.
The island is long and narrow with the center even narrower than the rest, resembling the slender waist of an ant. Inhabitants reside either in Hongdo 1-gu (the waistline part of the island), or in Hongdo 2-gu, which is located in the northern part of the island (See map). Because transportation to Hongdo 2-gu is rather limited, tourists generally prefer to stay in Hongdo 1-gu where the wharf and most minbak (home stay) accommodations are located.
