Yeongildae landmark · Sea-view deck
The Yeongildae Maritime Pavilion (해상누각) is a raised sea-view platform built over the water at Yeongildae Beach in Pohang. From here the whole Yeongil Bay arc, the red Space Walk and the city lights line up in one frame — which is why it is the beach's most photographed spot.
Erected by Pohang City, the pavilion extends over the water so visitors can look back at the white-sand shore and out across Yeongil Bay. It is a public, open structure — no ticket, no reservation — and it doubles as the official marker for the International Fireworks Festival held here since 2004.
Stand on the deck facing the open sea for the classic 'red Space Walk + bay' wide shot. Turn around for the beach promenade and the Hwanho Park ridge. On calm nights the water mirrors the lights, giving a second composition for free.
The pavilion sits on the Yeongildae sand, about a 15-minute taxi or city bus ride from Pohang Station. It is a short, flat walk from the main beach entrance and connects to the Hwanho Park – Space Walk loop.
It is a public sea-view deck built over the water at Yeongildae Beach. It is free to enter and is the beach's main photo viewpoint.
No. The pavilion is part of the public beach and is free and open, with no ticket or reservation.
Late afternoon to night gives the best light and city views; during the fireworks festival it is the prime viewing point.
