In particular, with 2025?2026 designated as the "Years of Visiting Chungnam," the city expects a significant increase in both domestic and international tourists. As a result, it plans to create a safe and pleasant beach environment through systematic preparations.

Daecheon Beach will operate for a total of 51 days, while Muchangpo Beach will operate for 44 days. During the operating period, up to 429 staff members per day will be assigned to Daecheon Beach, and up to 92 staff members per day will be assigned to Muchangpo Beach.

The "Pet Beach," which gained great popularity last year, will also return this year.

This unique offering caters to the growing demand for travel with companion animals. It will provide information on pet-friendly businesses and accommodations, as well as special snacks exclusively for dogs.
