What makes it special
Bukjeobawi is a prominent rock pinnacle offshore of Dodong Harbor. It holds legendary status among Korean divers for its resident pair of majestic Asian sheepshead wrasses.
Descending through rock cracks between 15 and 25 meters often rewards divers with an intimate, awe-inspiring encounter with these gentle giants. Cruising yellowtail schools frequently sweep around the reef crest.
Dive guide
- Maintain respectful distance when observing sheepshead wrasses; avoid chasing or touching them.
- Manage air consumption steadily across the 15m to 30m depth gradient.
- Because it is near harbor transit lanes, always deploy an SMB and surface in close coordination with the boat.
