Overview

75 Square is a coastal observation deck located on the southern tip of Yeongdo Island in Busan. The park was constructed in 1975, from which it derives its name. It is situated along the Jeoryeong Coastal Trail, providing direct access to the rocky shoreline and the open views of the Korea Strait. The area features a small fountain, stone benches, and wooden observation decks overlooking the ocean. The park is integrated into the rugged cliffside geography of Dongsam-dong, connecting the coastal road to the seaside walking path. It serves as a midway rest point for hikers traversing the island's coastal perimeter.

Insider tips

Bring comfortable walking shoes to transition from the park's concrete square to the rugged coastal trail stairs.

Visit during low tide if you intend to explore the rock pools located directly below the observation deck.

Keep a windbreaker accessible, as the coastal location is significantly windier than Busan's city center.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to descend the cliffside paths outside of the marked wooden staircases, as the rocks can be slippery and unstable.
