The Ulsan Whale Cruise in Jangsaengpo is gaining popularity among visitors. This cruise offers two main programs: a coastal tour that simply explores the sea and a whale watching expedition that seeks out wild whales. During peak seasons, such as the Ulsan Whale Festival, advance booking is highly recommended.
The Whale Cruise departs from Jangsaengpo Gorea-ro 244, Nam-gu, Ulsan, making it a convenient stop alongside the Jangsaengpo Whale Museum. Reservations can be made online via the official website, by phone (052-226-1901~2), or in person at the ticket office. Whale watching costs 20,000 KRW for adults and 10,000 KRW for children, lasting approximately 3 hours. Coastal tours are 15,000 KRW for adults and 7,000 KRW for children, lasting about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Discounts of 25% are available for seniors over 65, national merit recipients, and individuals with disabilities.
Bloggers suggest that when taking the Whale Cruise, it is best to approach the experience with the mindset of enjoying a unique sea adventure rather than solely expecting to see whales, as whale sightings depend on nature. The ship's interior features seating on the first and second floors with air conditioning for comfort, while the third-floor outdoor deck offers expansive ocean views and the opportunity to feed seagulls, creating memorable experiences.
