섶섬 (Seopseom)

Verified2026-09-11 checkedWallReef

The quieter of the Seogwipo islands, with the same soft coral as Munseom and fewer boats on it.

Depth: 6–30 m20–98 ft
Difficulty: Intermediate
Entry: Boat
Typical current: Moderate
Coordinates: 33°14.268′N 126°35.616′E
Activities: Scuba · Freediving

Seopseom sits east of Munseom and gets a fraction of the traffic. The soft coral cover is comparable and the topography is gentler, which makes it the site local operators pick when conditions are marginal or when a group is mixed. Like the rest of the Seogwipo sites it is protected, access runs through licensed operators, and the season is short — the water is only worth it from summer into late autumn.

Boat from Seogwipo Harbour, about 10 minutes.

Before you get in

A wall. There is no bottom in sight to judge against, so depth is kept by the gauge alone — and it is easy to end up deeper than intended.

Taken from this site’s recorded depth, type and current, and nothing else. An empty list is not a safe site — the sea on the day, the local geography and the boat traffic are not in it. The briefing on the spot comes first.

Forecast heights against mean sea level. Real tides in a bay, a harbour or over a flat can differ — check an official tide table before you get in.

Only wave height and wind are scored, because those are what close a boat ramp or a shore entry. Water temperature is reported and never scored: 12°C is an ordinary dive in a drysuit and punishing in a 3 mm, and a number that cannot see your suit has no business marking it down. Stars do not decide whether you get in — you and your guide do, on the day.
