기장 해녀 시장
Gijang County on Busan's northeastern edge is the city's seafood production heartland, and the small haenyeo (female free-diver) market adjacent to Gijang Port operates on a schedule tied to the divers' morning catch — typically 7am to noon. The women here are among the last working haenyeo in the Busan area; Jeju gets the publicity but Gijang's divers have worked these waters for generations. You can buy sea cucumbers, abalone, and turban shells directly from the women who caught them, often still alive and moving. Unlike organized haenyeo experiences in Jeju, this is completely uncommercialized — there's no English signage, no tour packages, just the women selling what they caught that morning. Take Line 2 to Haeundae then Bus 100 to Gijang; plan for a 50-minute commute from central Busan.
