Cruise Ulsan Harbour!
The Namgu district office would like to promote their whale-watching and night-cruise boat among the expat community by offering us a special party.
Whale Watching Tour, October 5th Sat, 2013
Global Day ‘Night Cruise’ Beer Party▪Hosted by UMFSC ▪Sponsored by SK & UlsanOnline.com |
The event will be held from 6:30 – 8:30 pm on Saturday, October 5th, and tickets cost only 10,000 won, thanks to a generous donation by SK (tickets for a night cruise are usually 40,000 won). For 2 hours, the boat will cruise around Ulsan, showing off the glimmering lights of the coast from Jangsangpo to Gangeolgot. The timing will be perfect to watch the sun set and the lights pop out in the twilight, then return to land under a starry sky (there will be no moon that night). There will be free food and beer available, and live music.

A shuttle bus will be running from City Hall at 5:30pm, or parking is available at the Whale Museum lot for free (but keep in mind it is a beer party, so either find a designated driver, or bring the number for a daeri-unjong).
A total of 150 tickets are being sold for the event through different foreigner groups (see below), and UlsanOnline has been given 60. I’ll be selling them on a first-paid, first-served basis, contact and bank information will be posted at the end of the article. Children are welcome to join, as long as they are accompanied by an adult.
The cruise routes – this event would follow 2 – Coast night view.
There will be a group photo on the pier before we set sail, and a welcome ceremony with remarks from the mayor of Namgu.
If there is a typhoon that weekend, the event will be postponed to October 12th.
Maybe you’ll even see dolphins or whales! www.whalecity.kr/whale
