Neungpadae (凌波臺) is a large-scale tafoni colony developed on the rocky coast forming a land-tied island called Yukgyedo (陸繫島). The name Neungpadae, meaning “the rock island surpassing the waves,” was given because of the sight of waves crashing against the rocks. Yukgyedo refers to an island connected to the mainland by accumulated sand dunes, and tafoni are groups of holes clustered like a honeycomb on the rock surface (cliffs). Originally, Neungpadae existed as a granite bedrock island (rock reef) exposed in front of Munam Coast but connected to land by sand deposited behind the island by Munam Stream as wave action decreased. However, now Munam 2-ri harbor has been built along the southern boundary of Neungpadae, and settlements have arisen on the land-tied sandbar connecting the island and Munam Coast, so the original form of Yukgyedo is hardly observable.
