A Conversation for The World's Best Beaches
Mustang Island National Park
Craig Started conversation Jul 20, 1999
Off the Gulf Coast of Texas, easy to get to from my home town of Corpus Christi, Mustang Island is actually on Northern Padre Island, a long finger of land that runs from Corpus to Mexico. Part wildlife preserve and part proper beach, it is only occasionally crowded, and has a fantastic combination of sandy beach, huge, beautiful dunes, assorted wildlife, and inland marshes (great for kayaking). Not a good beach for surfing, really, but a great one for getting a tan, birdwatching, camping out, boating, and getting away from other people if need be, since it pretty much runs halfway down the Texas coastline. Which, if you haven't noticed, is rather extremely long.
