AEWOL HANDAM COAST

애월 한담해변

Handam makes more sense when I walk a little farther.

Parking has rarely been easy when I visit Handam. On busy days, I stop circling for a space directly beside the coast and park legally beyond the most congested stretch instead.

The point of Handam, for me, is walking beside the sea anyway. The path runs between cafés and the volcanic shoreline, while transparent kayaks cross the water on clear days.

As the light drops, the sea and the silhouettes along the path settle into the same view. It is a west-coast sunset shaped by the walk itself.
