Daily Busan
What to do this weekend: North Port SUP Festa
Looking for a cool way to beat the heat in Busan? Head over to North Port Waterfront Park and make a splash at the North Port SUP FESTA, running now through Aug. 6.
This waterfront celebration blends outdoor adventure with laid-back cultural vibes, perfect for a refreshing summer day by the sea.
From stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) and kayaking to hydrobikes and SUPMARAN, an electric boat made by linking two paddleboards, there’s no shortage of water activities. Families will love the kid-friendly swimming zones, open daily for safe, splashy fun.
This weekend, the energy rises with a mix of cultural events, including a book festival, classical music performances, a flea market and a Saturday night screening of the hit movie “Begin Again.” It’s the perfect mix of chill and thrill.
Want to paddle with your pup? There's a special SUP program just for pet lovers, so bring your furry friend along for a ride on the waves.
The fun doesn’t stop on the water. On Saturday, Aug. 2, up to 50 people can join meditation sessions set to soft music and guided breathing. It’s a great way to recharge your body and mind.
Additionally, be sure to visit the "Book Shade" pop-up store, a cozy reading space created in collaboration with Kyobo Bookstore.
Pre-registration is required for most programs via Naver (link below); however, some on-site slots may be available, depending on space. Each activity has a separate sign-up process, so be sure to review the full schedule and details on the official website.
