Beomseom Nostril

Also known as: The Nostril · Kotgumeong

The Nostril takes its name from twin caves in the northern cliff of Beomseom that look like the nostrils of a tiger. Divers follow the columnar-jointed wall below the surface and swim beneath the caves. Local guides describe a kelp forest at the start, then sand and gravel where large tree soft corals stand. It is a fun dive point for certified divers.
