The cable car system is one of the few in Korea that spans both mountain ridges and the ocean surface.
Choyang Station is specifically built on a small island to allow passengers to access the local aquarium facilities directly from the boarding area.
The station is connected to the mainland via the Samcheonpo Bridge, a series of five bridges connecting the islands of Sacheon.
The cable car route covers a total length of 2.43 kilometers.
Sacheon Sea Cable Car Choyang Station serves as a strategic intermediate stop on the integrated route connecting the mainland, Choyang Island, and Gak-san Mountain. The station is integrated with the Choyang Island rest area, which features an aquarium and a miniature zoo. It offers an elevated vantage point overlooking the southern coastal waters of Gyeongsangnam-do and the Samcheonpo Bridge. The structure facilitates seamless transitions for passengers moving between the island hub and the coastal base. It is a critical node in the Sacheon cable car system, which is recognized for traversing both land and sea.
The observation deck at the station provides a direct, elevated view looking back toward the Samcheonpo Bridge and the surrounding archipelago.
Combine your cable car ride with a visit to the adjacent aquarium to maximize the value of the trip.
Check the wind conditions on the day of your visit, as strong gusts can cause temporary service suspensions.
Remain on the cable car if you prefer to continue to the Gak-san station without disembarking at the island.
Avoid arriving during high-wind weather alerts, as cable car operations are frequently paused for safety.
Closed on the first and third Mondays of each month for maintenance.
