Dive-site story
Situated directly off Namae Port along the Yangyang coastline, this house reef serves as the primary training and shore diving location for local dive operators in Gangwon Province. The underwater landscape features granite boulders, artificial tetrapod structures near the breakwater, and patches of sand alternating with seasonal kelp beds. Temperate marine organisms thrive across the hard substrate, making it a reliable spot for skills practice, navigation training, and macro photography.
Extensive boulder fields encrusted with cold-water sea anemones and red sea squirts
Sheltered conditions inside the outer harbor perimeter making entry and navigation straightforward
Rocky crevices hiding octopuses and juvenile rockfish
