South Korea
Gyeonggi Do
Gyeonggi-do is a landlocked administrative region in north-west South Korea, surrounding the Seoul metropolitan area. The province itself offers limited direct diving options, with most scuba activity concentrated along coastal or adjacent waters outside its borders. In practice, divers typically access marine sites via day trips from Seoul and larger nearby coastal hubs, or pursue freshwater diving in local reservoirs and rivers when available. Overall, the region is more relevant for access logistics, training, and logistics planning than for independent regional diving itineraries.
