Jusangjolli Rocks

This 2km stretch of coastline is known for its striking hexagonal rock columns. This unique rock formation is apparently the result of the rapid cooling and contraction of lava as it poured into the sea.

Perhaps it was because the sun was setting, but I thought the coast here had a bit of an eerie quality. Some of the shorter stones looked like skulls, and it seemed like the perfect setting for a pirate’s demise, or a scene from a ghost story.
