Naksan is a beach in the northeast of the South Korean province of Gangwon-do, in the same-named hamlet, a short distance from Sokcho.

Beautiful views of nature abound, including light sand, blue sky and water, and rocks overgrown with green pine trees.

The length of the beach is about 4 km. It has a clear sea with clear but cold water that washes its coast. The entrance to the sea is gentleand the bottom is sandy. Naksan Beach is popular among surfers, kitesurfers, and bodyboarders who like energetic beach activities, such as surfing, kitesurfing, and bodyboarding. On the shore, the ebb and flow is barely apparent. A vacation to Naksan Beach is ideal for a group or family outing with children, as well as a romantic getaway for two.

Evening celebrations with fireworks and carnival performances, attractions and noisy entertainment, such as riding a Viking ship or pony discos riding in illuminated carts and playing loud music, are hosted in the northern portion of the beach. The beach's southern section is quieter and more private. People gather here early in the morning to view and photograph the sunrise over the sea.
