Port Aransas
Port Aransas is Texas island life at it’s best.

Rockport
Rockport Beach is Texas’ first Blue Wave Beach and one of only four on the Texas Gulf Coast. This beach is a bay beach, so the waves are not as big as you will find in Port Aransas and South Padre Island, making it safer for families with younger children. Visit some historic sights or take a trip to the aquarium.
