Yeongjong Island is an island off the west coast of the city of Incheon, South Korea, which contains Incheon International Airport as well as small villages, farms, and beaches. The previously separate Yongyu, Sammok, and Sinbul Islands have been joined to Yeongjong Island by an area of reclaimed land built for the construction of the airport. The island is an exclave of Incheon Metropolitan City's Jung-gu district, and is accessed via two bridges, Yeongjong Bridge connecting to Seo-gu and Incheon Bridge connecting to Songdo.
In addition to the airport, the island is known for Eulwangni Beach and Wangsan Beach on the west coast,[1] and Yongguksa Temple in the central part.[2] The island also has a ferry terminal on its southwest coast for Muuido Island.
The Incheon Airport Maglev connects the airport to Yongyu station near the ferry terminal.
