Busan Public Yacht Tour | Gwangalli Haeundae | Yachtholic

2026/10/15

Because I enjoy the rocking motion of the boat and didn't want to see drones and crowds, the value for money was excellent. The crew was very friendly and provided great service; they even offered life jackets and helped with photos, and provided cookies and drinks, making my red-eye flight exhaustion worthwhile. 🤗
