Paradise on a Budget.... South Padre Island!

deep sea fishing, parasailing, scuba diving, golf or simply lazing on the soft white sand beach, this long, narrow barrier island on the Gulf of Mexico offers the ocean, sun, or recreation-bound vacationer a heavenly escape from the daily grind.

The clear turquoise waters are enticing, but there's no shortage of activities for landlubbers. Go horseback riding on the beach, play a round of tennis or golf, hike or join the birders seeking out the area's more than 300 species. Or get a bird's-eye view of the coast from the top of the historic Port Isabel Lighthouse.

Fresh seafood with all varieties of seasoning and other fare is served at excellent restaurants, many with outdoor seating. A true island getaway, South Padre will renew your soul. The coastal atmosphere is relaxed and South Padre Island is perfect for a family vacation. Chase the waves, wade in tide pools, or relax on the beach or by one of the pools.

South Padre Water Sports offer fun things to do in all that water. Windsurfing, wave riding, parasailing, surfing, skiing, snorkling, scuba diving, kiteboarding, kayaking.... the list goes on and on.

Dolphin Watch Cruises and ECO Tours This cruise operates daily and runs for about 1-2 hrs. The dolphin watch will take you to the jetties where there is a 90% success rate in seeing dolphins. The ECO-tour acts as a floating classroom where the 1st mate will drag a net in the ocean to capture a variety of marine life. The captain then hosts a show & tell to review the marine life caught by the net.

Families vacationing at the resort will enjoy fantastic recreational amenities including oceanfront pools and hot tubs. In addition to a playground, game room and arcade, supervised children's activities are provided, free of charge, from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Sand Bar's, located poolside, provide cold drinks and live entertainment (Friday-Sunday) during the months of March through September. The Gulf Coast of Texas is dramatically beautiful in any season. Cloudless days and calming waves provide an atmosphere for relaxation and rejuvenation. Migrating birds adorn the coastline.
