Gwangjang-dong is a neighborhood in Seoul, South Korea. The area itself is not a coastal diving gateway and there are no local dive sites within the city. Nearby diving opportunities would be found outside the city center, with the broader region offering limited freshwater or coastal options, but not as a primary diving destination. For divers visiting Seoul, focus on urban sightseeing and use day trips to coastal or offshore dive hubs if travel permits permit.
