SOUTH KOREA · GEOJE · OEDO
The Oedo Island Ferry is the main way to visit Oedo Botania, one of Geoje’s best-known island attractions. Unlike a regular point-to-point passenger ferry, Oedo is normally visited on a round-trip sightseeing cruise from a port on Geoje Island. Most Oedo cruises include about two hours of landing time on the island before passengers return on the same vessel.
