Padre Burgos is named after Fr. José Burgos, one of the martyred priests collectively called Gomburza. The town is being surrounded by Sogod Bay in the East, Padre Burgos was once called "Tamulayag", a vernacular slang which means "Let's go fishing". Fishing is the main livelihood in the town.

The town is famous for its white-sand beaches such as the Tangkaan Beach, from where Limasawa Island can be seen; the Likay-Likay Beach, where you can go fishing and snorkelling; the Bukana which is like a small swam of water and serve as a home of many fishes in Buenavista, the floating Balsa of Bas. And the beaches in Barangay Lungsodaan. Padre Burgos is also famous to diving enthusiasts, the underwater beauty boasts of many colourful clusters of corals. With the Local Government's cooperation, Coral Cay, a foreign non-profit organization established its offices in Barangay Tangkaan whose main purpose is to provide help among local people to maintain fish sanctuaries, awareness programs on ocean-life preservation, and clean-up activities on the shorelines of Padre Burgos.

Padre Burgos is also known for its "budbod" (suman), a very sweet sticky-rice.
