20 Mar 2014 - Getting to 통영유람선터미널 Tongyeong Excursion Ship Terminal

I reached Tongyeong Bus Terminal at 8.40am. Remember the guy at 9월 hotel? He helped me to call and asked about the ferry timetable for 장자도. Yes! Yes! *Wink
The first ferry will be leaving at 10am. I wanted to get to Tongyeong Excursion Ship Terminal 통영유람선터미널 as early as possible becos I was told that ferry tickets could sometimes be fully booked. Actually, I can take bus no. 101 to Tongyeong Excursion Ship Terminal but on second thought, I better take a taxi.  It was also drizzling in Tongyeong. I hoped the ferry will still operate as usual...
Again...if this is useful for anyone out there...


Lots of taxi outside the terminal.
 I took a bus back for my return trip and the bus stop is opposite the bus terminal.
A Tourist Information Centre outside the bus terminal.
Well, it was not even 9am so its still closed when I was there. 
My original plan was to check out 동비랑벽화마을 Dongpirang Wall Painting Village, 해저터널- 경남 통영 Undersea Tunnel and 미륵산 Mireuksan. 장도 was sort of a last minute decision. A big thanks to KTO(Korea) for this map becos I asked them how to get to 통영유람선터미널 Tongyeong Excursion Ship Terminal from Dongpirang Village. I thought of buying 꿀빵 Ggul Bbang and 충무김밥 Chungmu Gimbap from the popular shops in the area around the port before going to the ship terminal. I decided to give up the idea of going to Dongpirang Village first and proceed straight to the ship terminal instead. If I did not remember wrongly, the bus stop from 중앙시장 Jung-Ang Market to the ship terminal should be across the road, opposite the market.
Ooppss...too small ㅋㅋㅋ
That is the island 장
도 ^^
I took the taxi at 8.41am and reached 통영유람선터미널 Tongyeong Excursion Ship Terminal at 9.03am. The starting fare was KRW2800 and total taxi fare cost KRW8600.
