Bureh beach is a long stretch of golden coloured sand in the vicinity of the town of the same name, in the southern part of the Freetown Peninsula. Unlike other beaches further north, winds are frequent, creating perfect waves and surfing conditions. The beach looks and feels a little wild and less picture-perfect compared to Tokeh or River No.2 – the sand is a little coarser, and the regular swells make swimming difficult. However, walking up and down the length of the beach, you’ll notice rocks framing quieter coves and rock pools where it’s possible to have a little splash, always exercising caution.
