 
Tezroc is a tourism and sports business brand name, which the Busan city government enthusiastically
endorsed for the progress of tourism in 1990. It is the compound word made from Tejong (of
Teajongdae) and rock (for the rock yard of Taejongdae). The Tezroc cruises from the coastline
passenger ship terminal to Teajongdae, Oryuk islands,
Gwangalli Beach, and
Haeundae Beach before returning to the terminal.
Hyundai Heavy Industries built the Tezroc cruise ship in 1992. The total length is 45.5 meters,
the width is 11.4 meters, and it can accommodate 188 people. It operates 3 times daily, except
during severe weather conditions. It can also accommodate private charters (80 people minimum,
reservations must be made at least 1 week in advance). The tours take between 1½ and 2 hours.
At departure, ordered food and drinks will be served. Finish quickly and move on deck so as not
to miss the spectacular scenery of Busan port. The compass deck has tables and long chairs for
sunbathing. Behind is the panoramic scenery of Yongdu-san Park, Daesin Park, Jungang-dong,
Nampo-dong, and Yeongju-dong. On the right side are Yeongdo Island, Yeongdo Bridge,
Korea Maritime University, and Korea Shipbuilding and Engineering Corporation.
To the left are Jaseongdae and Gamman-dong (northeast Asia's biggest container pier and distribution
areas).
