Suncheonman Bay
순천만습지
Jeonnam-Gwangju
Suncheonman Bay is one of the world’s top five coastal wetlands, stretching along a 3-kilometer waterway with expansive mudflats and reed beds. The reed colonies serve as wintering and breeding grounds for various bird species, including hooded cranes. The tidal flats are home to diverse wildlife, including mudskippers and East Asian seepweed. It is an ecological tourism destination where visitors can enjoy spectacular sunsets over the S-shaped waterway from the observatory, often accompanied by flocks of birds soaring above the reeds.
