Fourteen kilometres south of Masbate Town is the attractive crescent Bituon Beach, hugely popular with local families on weekends. The dive resort here charges admission to use the beach, picnic facilities and swimming pool and there's an on-site restaurant. A tricycle ride to and from Masbate costs around P350, with waiting time.
