The Buxton center is about 1 mile northwest of Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and 9 miles east of Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum.
Below are reviews of the city of Buxton, NC from an actual visitor's perspective.
We love riding on the beach. The access to the beach was very close.
We ate lunch at Buxton Munch Company which gets 5 stars for an awesome French Dip sandwich and great service. Across the street from the hotel was a small dining place with lots of Hersey ice cream flavors that made choosing difficult.
The church on the beach was beautiful and the seafood was fantastic!
It's close to the lighthouse and I've been going there for over 20 years.
Beach access with free parking. The Diamond Shoals restaurant is great. Great sunrises and sunsets and some wind if you need it.
Nice place to visit!
