Best Activities & Things to Do in Busan (2026)
Busan is South Korea's second-largest city and its undisputed beach capital. Stretched along the southeastern coast, it packs world-class beaches, ancient temples perched on sea cliffs, colourful hillside villages, and some of the freshest seafood you'll eat anywhere in Asia. Whether you're chasing waves at Haeundae, browsing Jagalchi fish market at dawn, or riding the cable car over Songdo, there's more here than most visitors expect — and enough to fill a week without running out of new things to do.
