The 28th annual Polar Bear Swim Festival will take place on January 4, 2015, at Haeundae Beach. This unique event is held every year to help fend off the cold winter weather as well as pray for good health in the New Year.
Enthusiastic participants will run and jump into the sea and swim in the cold waters like a “Polar Bear” in the Arctic Ocean. This is one of the city’s most enjoyable winter festivals and provides a unique experience for everyone involved.
Registration for the Polar Bear Swim Festival 2015 will take place from November 21 – December 19, 2014. The registration fee is 20,000 won with participation limited to 5,000 people on a first come, first served basis.
