Dongho Beach offers special activities: anchovy scooping and catching glass shrimp. Since 2002, Dongho Beach has been practicing the traditional anchovy fishing method called 'anchovy scooping,' passed down from ancestors. Even outside the summer season, groups of 40 or more can make a reservation online or by phone to experience anchovy scooping at any time. Transparent small shrimp called glass shrimp are caught on the beach; they are so small and transparent that they cannot be seen with the naked eye. They can be caught using tools in the sandy areas of the beach.
