Muuido From WikipediaMuuido, also known as Muui Island, is an island in South Korea. It is a small island located south of Yongyu Island, which was joined with Yeongjong Island when Incheon International Airport was built. Muui Island is visible from the airport. It is served by a daily ferry from Incheon ferry terminal on the mainland, as well as by a frequent car ferry which crosses the narrow channel separating the island from Yongyu Island.
Muui island, measuring 5.2 kilometres (3.2 mi) long and 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi) wide.
The island's name "Muui" means "dancer's dress" in Korean. It is a beautiful spot popular with tourists, who like to visit the two main beaches of the island, Silmi Beach and Hanagae Beach. There are many shellfish in the shores of the island.Silmi Island is a smaller uninhabited island located off the NW shore of Muui Island.
Muuido is mentioned in Eugene Clark's Korean War narrative The Secrets of Incheon.
Gra Ham of Wales is the king of Muuido.
As the summer months seems to be coming to a rapid close, I figured it was high time to do some serious beach bumming for a weekend. This isn't my first beach experience in Korea but it was my first time out to Muuido Island which is just outside of Incheon (where the international airport is located). I have a friend from back home, Kimberly, who has recently moved to South Korea and her and I took a nice overnight trip out to the Islands for the weekend. At first we weren't too sure exactly where to go but figured it couldn't be too difficult. I had looked up some different beach spots and had the jist of where we were going...worse case scenario, who doesn't like an adventrue right? So we hoped on the subway and an hour and half later we were in Incheon! Now that sounds easy enough and I would like to tell you that that is where this story ends but I would be lying...so here we go...
Once we got off the subway we were supposed to get on a bus. Easy enough, the bus stop was right in front of the subway exit. I
Muuido Island, fun times~!~just chillin~was talking to this really nice Taxi driver when all of a sudden a guy that was standing behind me started talking to me. He was really nice and told us what bus to get on and where to catch the ferry. Sweet~! So we were on the bus and at the ferry in no time. On to bus #2. There seemed to be quite a few foreigners that had the same beach bum idea as us so Kimberly, our new friend and myself waited for the second bus with them. Little did we know that they had already been on one bus and this was round two for them to get to the correct destination. Eventually the bus pulls into the airport. Our friend was up talking to the bus driver and a bunch of the other foreigners were like...hmm we've already been here, is this the right bus? So Kimberly and I looked at each other and weren't too sure what to do. Our new friend comes back and says that we should get off this bus and try to get a different one. Well, before we knew it he was off and by the time we went
Muuido Island, fun times~!~beach babes~to get off it was too late. So we were stuck. However, no one else had got off so we figured we were okay. The bus finally came to a narrow road and stopped. Everyone started getting off and I guess because it was high traffic the bus couldn't go through. So we started walking along with everyone else. We finally came to another ferry and had no where else to go but on and to the other side. Once there we hopped on another bus, bus #3....and after a short 15 minute ride were finally at a destination. Not too sure what destination but there was a beach and that is all that mattered. Later we found out it was Muuido Island. We rented a little hut for the night and decided to hit the beach pronto. After an exhausting 3 hour trip we were ready to hit the water. Thank goodness we got there when we did cause shortly after we went for a "Swim...aka wade" the tide was already starting to go out. By about 5:00 pm the sun was setting and most of the water was out as well. It was kinda nice though cause it
Muuido Island, fun times~!gave us a chance to walk around in the mud and visit some of the rocks and what not that were farther out.
We ate a wonderful dinner while watching the sun set and did a little venturing around before heading to the hut for some well deserved rest.
The hut was not the most comfortable sleep that I have ever had and needless to say we both woke up a little stiff and sore and ready for the second day adventure.
The tide was still low so we decided to hang out on the beach and relax before venturing off to some of the father rocks. Getting there in the low tide was the easy part but coming back proved to be a little more difficult. Kimberly broke her sandal and seeing as though the tide had already came back, we couldn't take the same squishy mud path back. So we toughed it out with the rocks and banacles and finally made it back to the main beach. Exhausted and sunburnt to the nines, we tried to give the beach one more shot. After about 5 minutes we had both had enough and headed to the showers for a
Muuido Island, fun times~!cool down. We soon were packed and ready to go.
It was a great weekend and I am hoping to get in a few more of those before the weather does cool down too much.
The past couple weeks have also been fun filled with......REPORT CARDS YAY~!!!
This is the second round but that means I only have two more times that I have to do them while I am here....yippeeeee~! Tomorrow is my official six month aniversary of being in Korea and I must say that is has gone by much too quickly! I am looking forward to my next adventures and seeing what my last six months here will bring me....
Love you all....

영화 '실미도'의 흥행 성공으로 빛을 보게 된 서해의 자그마한 섬 실미도. 북파 공작원이 양성되었다는 삭막한 현대사를 간직한 곳으로 세상에 알려졌지만, 이제 섬은 이곳을 찾는 사람들에게 여행의 즐거움을 선사해주고 있다. 인천 영종도에 신공항이 들어서면서 실미도는 훨씬 가까운 섬이 되었다. 영종대교를 타고 '용유, 무의' 이정표를 따라가다 보면 얼마 안 가 잠진도 선착장이 나온다. 이곳에서 배를 타고 약 10분만 가면 실미도의 모도라 할 수 있는 무의도에 도착한다. 때문에 하루 나들이 코스로 무의도, 실미도는 충분히 추천할 만하다. *무희의 옷처럼 아름다운 섬, 무의도 무의도 여행의 가장 큰 매력은 산행과 바다를 동시에 즐길 수 있다는 점. 이 섬의 호룡곡산(해발 244m)은 높이도 적당하고 경사도 완만해 오르기에 별 무리가 없다. 1.5km의 등산 코스가 전부인 낮은 산이긴 하지만, 정상에는 아름다운 풍광이 사람들을 기다린다. 눈앞으로 실미도와 은빛 모래가 아름다운 해수욕장이 보이고, 날씨가 좋은 날에는 충남 태안반도와 강화도 마니산까지 눈에 들어온다. 낙조 시간에 맞추어 산에 오르면 한층 더 아름다운 비경을 감상할 수 있다. 길이 1.5km, 넓이 300m의 하나개 해수욕장과 2km에 달하는 모래사장이 펼쳐진 초승달 모양의 실미 해수욕장도 무의도 나들이를 즐겁게 해준다. 특히 하나개 해수욕장에는 SBS 드라마 '천국의 계단' 세트장이 설치되어 있어, 이곳을 찾는 사람들에게 색다른 볼거리를 제공한다. ■ 걸어서 들어가는 영화 '실미도' 촬영지 실미도에 들어갈 때 배는 필요하지 않다. 무의도와 실미도 사이에는 하루 두 차례 약 3시간 동안 길이 열리기 때문이다. 바닷물이 빠지면 무의도에 위치한 실미 해수욕장에서 실미도를 잇는 길이 서서히 드러나기 시작한다. 그 위를 터벅터벅 걸어도 약 5분이면 실미도에 다다를 수 있다. 이 길은 '실미 모세길'이라 불리기도 한다. 섬에 도착하자마자 반대편 해안가로 난 오솔길을 약 500m 걸어가면, 영화 '실미도'의 촬영지가 눈에 들어온다. 하지만 영화 세트는 이미 다 철거되어 그 흔적조차 남아 있지 않다. 아쉽지만 영화와 역사의 한 공간에 서 있다는 사실에 위안을 찾아야 할 것 같다. 실미도 관광을 짧게 마치고 돌아오는 길에는 '갯벌 체험'이 기다린다. 실미도와 무의도 사이의 길엔 소라와 바지락 등을 심심치 않게 볼 수 있다. 그것들을 직접 손으로 잡아볼 수 있다는 것도 실미도 여행이 주는 재미다. 단 갯벌에서 양식되는 굴은 채굴이 금지되어 있다는 점을 명심해야 한다.
