Four Distinct Seasons - Korea

Korea's climate is regarded as a continental climate from a temperate standpoint and a monsoonal climate from a precipitation standpoint. The climate of Korea is characterized by four distinct seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter.

Spring

Spring lasts from late March to early May. Temperatures are mild and pleasant. It is the ideal season to witness cherry blossoms, forsythia, azaleas, magnolias and lilacs blooming during the peak season between March and May.

In Korea, spring temperatures range from 5 degree celcius to 20 degree celcius, and the return of warm weather brings wild flowers to bloom all over the country. As the weather improves, so do people’s spirits, and springtime festivals are held throughout the country. There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the good weather by participating in Korea’s flower, food, and culture festivals

Summer

The hot months of summer last from June to early September. Half of the annual rainfall occurs during the monsoon season from late June to early July. Mid-July through mid-August is the hottest period and the most popular time for Koreans to go on vacation.

From June the temperatures start to climb in Korea, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun outdoors. Korea’s beaches offer visitors a chance to cool off, have fun in the water, and enjoy some beautiful scenery. Korea is surrounded by water and so there are plenty of good beaches to choose from. Visitors to the west coast can watch the sunset over the vast tidal flats, while on the east coast you can soak up the sun on dazzling white beaches. Jeju Island’s beaches even offer you a taste of tropical paradise.

High season for hitting the beaches in Korea is from early July to the end of August. During this time festivals are often held, and visitors can try out fun activities like water skiing or banana boats. Even during the off-season visitors can still enjoy the beautiful scenery of Korea’s beaches and visit other tourist attractions in the area.

Whether you want to swim, sunbathe, or watch an unforgettable sunrise, a trip to Korea’s beaches is a refreshing escape from everyday life.

CARIBBEAN BAY

Caribbean Bay is Korea’s largest water park and is particularly popular thanks to its convenient location in the Everland Theme Park complex on the outskirts of Seoul in Yongin. Caribbean Bay can accommodate up to 20,000 people and has five different themed zones that include indoor pools, outdoor pools, spas, water rides, water slides, and many other amusement facilities. The most popular attractions at the water park are the Wave Pool, where the waves get as high as 2.4 meters, and the water bobsled, with its 22-meter drop. Also among visitor favorites is the new Aqua Loop that was built in 2011 in celebration of the park’s 15th anniversary. The Aqua Loop is an intense body slide in which you plummet down an 18-meter vertical drop, shoot through a 360-degree turn, and reach heart-pounding speeds of up to 90km/h.
