What is the Jusangjeolli Cliff Jet Boat Experience?

Located at Daepo Beach in Seogwipo City, Jeju Island, the Jusangjeolli Cliffs are a spectacular cliff face made up of hexagonal basalt columns formed by cooled lava, plunging straight into the sea. This natural site has been designated as Natural Monument No. 443. Most visitors view the cliffs from the walking trails on land, but JEJU JET offers a different approach: you can set off from the water and take a jet boat or paraglider directly to the base of the Jusangjeolli Cliffs. The meeting point is in Daepo‑dong, adjacent to the Jungmun Tourist Complex, making it ideal for a day trip along Jeju Island's southern coast. The two tour options are ticketed separately, so you can choose the product that best fits your itinerary.

What can I do at the Jusangjeolli Cliffs on a Jeju Island Jet Boat?

The jet boat package lets you ride a captain‑operated speedboat that accelerates along the Daepo coastline and performs 360‑degree spins, with the splash and centrifugal force providing the main thrill. The impact felt in the outer seats is noticeably greater than in the inner seats, so do keep this in mind if you are travelling with children. The paragliding package takes you up into the air behind the boat, offering a bird's‑eye view of the emerald‑green waters, the sprawling basalt columns, and the ridgeline of Hallasan Mountain — a sight you simply cannot see from the land. Both activities depart from the same stretch of coastline, so the key to choosing lies in what kind of experience you want, rather than where the destination is.

Should I choose the Jet Boat or Paragliding?

If you are after speed and adrenaline, go for the jet boat: it stays on the water the whole time, and its appeal lies in the acceleration and the spins. If you are keen to soar through the sky and capture stunning panoramic photos, choose the paraglider: once you are up in the air, the cliffs, the coastline, and Hallasan Mountain are all laid out before you — this is the iconic landscape the area is famous for. Both activities depart from the same coast, so if you have plenty of time, you can book both separately and first experience the water‑based activity, then view the same coastline from above. One thing to note: the on‑site arrival requirements differ between the two activities, so be sure to check the details of each after booking.

You can admire Natural Monument No. 443, the Jusangjeolli Cliffs, from the waters closest to the shore, and experience a grandeur that you simply cannot feel from the land.

If you fancy something even more special, why not try the paraglider?

The moment you soar high above, the magnificent scenery of Jeju Island's ocean, the Jusangjeolli Cliffs, and Hallasan Mountain unfolds before your eyes.
