This is the north western side of Sungsan Marine Volcano (elevation 179m, & last active 5,000 years ago). It is now connected by a sandspit to Jeju Island. Theres a clump of pale blue flowers at left in the fg. This cove with the black sand beach is popular for jetboats, which depart at left.

Here's an aerial view of circular Sungsan Volcano.

Hello Chris.
I notice, there are many places on earth where they have 'Black sand' beaches.
At Langkawi it is an touristic place and at the UAE on the Indian ocean side near Fujaira and Kor Fukan, there is really black sand beaches too.
BTW, the sea is a 'bit' too slopey'.
Regards from Jan

Hi Chris,
Lovely secluded spot with spectacular surrounding landscape. Very good elevated shot ... great POV. I like the way you positioned the stairs to lead the viewer's focus downwards. Well captured and composed with good image quality. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Great POV and a very appealing view too Chris. The colours of the grass and the water at the bottom of these stairs are very well captured.

Hi Chris,
Another wonderful view on this place!
The range of green colors is so interesting passing of light yellow green until emerald! The dive on the beach gives a strong composition that the stair and fence improve still more! Beautifully done! Annie

Thought provoking perspective with the pathways starting and stopping. The curved beach and aquamarine blue are special. tFS. K2
