The wiki does not list berth numbers, so the ship's notice is the place to confirm the berth. The sources do not give the walking distance from the terminal to the town centre. Wikivoyage describes the harbour as part of the compact central business district, centred on Jungang-dong. Taxis are the recommended way around the central area, because the city is small and fares are cheap. The schedule snapshot lists Azamara Pursuit on 14 October 2026, from 08:00 to 20:00, and ms Westerdam on 29 October 2026, from 08:00 to 17:00. Check the ship's notice for any shuttle arrangement."],["For walkers and architecture fans","Dolsan Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge 450 m long and 20 m above sea level, linking Dolsan Island with downtown, and Dolsan Park has night views. A full-size replica turtle ship stands south of the bridge. Jinnamgwan is a large wooden pavilion with a small museum, and entry is free. The Yeosu Turtle Ship Festival is held in early May, and the 60th edition ran from 1 to 3 May 2026. The sources give no opening hours for Dolsan Park or the replica turtle ship, so check before you go."],["For nature and outdoor fans","The Yeosu Cable Car, opened in 2014, runs between Dolsan Island and Odongdo. Hanwha Aquaplanet has four exhibition halls and shows. Hyangiram Hermitage charges \u20a92,500 for adults and \u20a91,000 for children, with free entry for those aged 65 and over. Wikivoyage gives no opening hours for the hermitage or the aquarium, so check before travelling. Manseongri Beach is a black sand beach with public showers, restrooms, lifeguards and beachside Korean restaurants, and the sources give no distance or bus route to it. The Paraocean waterpark has several pools and slides. Yeosu's climate figures come from 2014 Korea Meteorological Administration records, with cool summers, mild winters and long springs and autumns."],["For shoppers","There is an E-Mart across from the bus terminal, two Lotte Mart stores and a shopping area in downtown Shinae. Seo Market is open 06:00 to 20:00. Gat kimchi, a mustard-leaf kimchi, comes from Dolsan Island. The sources give no opening hours for the E-Mart or the Lotte Mart stores, and no shop prices for Shinae, so check before you go. Wikivoyage's attraction and food prices carry dates from 2016 to 2024, so treat the figures as a guide only."],["For eaters and drinkers","Hoe, raw fish eaten with spicy sauce and lettuce, is a local speciality, and seodaewhae, a raw red tongue sole dish, is seasonal. Wikivoyage suggests the Suhyup auction at Gukdong Fishing Port around 17:00, though the sources give no hours for it. Rotary Restaurant charges \u20a910,000 and is open 08:00 to 19:00 (listing updated December 2022). Geobuksun bakery is open 09:00 to 18:00 and charges \u20a91,500 (updated September 2016). The sources read give no other restaurant hours or prices, so check before you go."],["Getting around and money","Yeosu Expo Station is the main rail station, with Yeocheon Station one stop before it. The KTX takes about three hours to Seoul, with Wikivoyage giving 3 hours 20 minutes and CruiseMapper about three hours. Yeosu Airport is about 30 minutes by car from the port, according to CruiseMapper, and Wikivoyage says the trip from the airport to downtown can take up to an hour. Bus 111 runs from the Intercity Bus Terminal past the harbour, across Dolsan Bridge and on to Hyangiram Hermitage. Wikivoyage warns that Dolsan Bridge is a bottleneck, so it is often faster to walk across and catch the previous bus on the far side. Bus signs are in Korean only, so save a screenshot of the route, and the sources give no bus timetable, so plan the return in advance. Korail's website has train schedules and fares. Prices are in won (\u20a9), and the sources give no currency, exchange or ATM information. A jjimjilbang bathhouse with a sleeping room costs about \u20a96,000."]],"access":"The sources read do not describe step-free routes at the terminal, on Dolsan Bridge or at the bus stops. Wikivoyage describes the bridge as a traffic bottleneck, and the bus signs are in Korean only. Ask the cruise line about gangway and shore transport, and book a taxi for longer trips rather than relying on buses.","links":[{"label":"CruiseMapper port wiki","url":"https://www.cruisemapper.com/ports/yeosu-port-10715?tab=wiki","detail":"Port wiki and call schedule"},{"label":"Yeosu on Wikivoyage","url":"https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Yeosu","detail":"Transport, sights and prices"},{"label":"Convert won to your currency","url":"https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/?Amount=1&From=KRW","detail":"Daily reference rates","currency":"KRW"}],"maps":[{"label":"Yeosu cruise terminal area on Google Maps","url":"https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Yeosu+cruise+terminal+Expo+2012+South+Korea","detail":"Expo 2012 terminal area"},{"label":"Yeosu on Wikivoyage","url":"https://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Yeosu","detail":"Town guide"}]}}}
