Ninety minutes is enough for a meaningful Cheongsapo stop when the route stays compact. Divide the time before arrival so the cafe, one nearby view and the return walk each have a clear place.
Divide the 90 minutes before you arrive
Use roughly 10 minutes for orientation, 45 to 55 minutes for the cafe, 15 to 20 minutes for a harbour or lighthouse walk, and keep the remaining time as a buffer. Adjust for mobility, weather and crowd levels.
If a train or capsule departure follows, work backward from its boarding time rather than from the nominal ride time.
Choose a menu that fits the clock
A drink and lighthouse financier or cookie suit a shorter visit. Grilled mochi, mango bingsu or a shared cake may need more time, so shorten the walk rather than rushing the dessert.
Have one thing you are willing to skip
Weather, queues and seating can change the plan. Decide in advance whether the optional part is the lighthouse walk, extra dessert or photo stop; do not let the fixed departure become the optional part.
