The 222Rn activity concentration was determined in salty underground and spring water in Jeju, Korea. The activities of radon in salty underground water and spring water were in the range of 0.40–3.77 and 0.65–20.65 Bq L−1, respectively. The radon concentration was higher in spring water in southern Jeju Island than in other regions. The effective dose of the age groups of adults due to intake of 222Rn from salty underground water varied from 1.01 to 9.64 μSv y−1. And the effective doses of spring water were in the range of 1.7–52.8 μSv y−1.
