Suyeongman Bay Yachting Center was built for the 1986 Asian Games and the 1988 Seoul Olympics yacht competitions!

Construction started in 1983 and was completed in 1986. Since then, it has become a hub for various yacht competitions and marine sports. Nowadays, it’s also a great place for yacht experiences, lessons, and leisure activities! 😊⛵

However, if you want to find the right course for you and avoid wasting time, I recommend booking in advance! ⛵😊
