The beach of the town is a stripe of undisturbed sands, on which the waves caress the coast in a calm swell, and on which it is a favourite resort with those who prize tranquillity rather than landscape.
The coast is dotted with hidden caves, mangrove forests and clean coral gardens that present a wide range of ecosystem that is both adventure and nature friendly.
The mood here is that of easy hospitality, welcoming fishermen and local sellers smiling welcomingly and offering local and fresh delicacies to tourists.
The coast is in the path of seasonal winds, which bring a cool breeze in the dry months and a cool, misty breeziness in the rains, and guarantee a pleasant climate all the year round.
There is nothing much to do at night in Buruanga, and the stars are more than sufficient, and the murmur of the waves is a soft lullaby of sleepers.
