Pipha Island Tourism

Type of destination: Island
Ideal visit duration: 2-3 days
Pipha Island is a secluded and tranquil destination located in the Rason Special Economic Zone of North Korea. Known for its beautiful scenery and pristine beaches, the island offers a glimpse of North Korea's attempts to develop tourism. The untouched natural beauty features clean sandy beaches and clear blue waters, surrounded by rugged terrain and rich greenery. With the local government's push for economic development, there is potential for the establishment of tourist facilities. However, the area remains underdeveloped, providing a rare, unspoiled retreat for visitors. Nature enthusiasts can appreciate the island's biodiversity and unique landscape, offering a sense of serenity away from the hustle and bustle of urban life. Pipha Island remains less frequented by tourists, primarily due to the restrictive travel policies of North Korea, which add to the island's mystique and allure. It reflects a different aspect of North Korea, separate from the usual portrayals in international media.
