Ask for a broom. Lots of sand in the room but its to be expected being Beach Front.

5/5 - Excellent

We were able to watch the release of the Kemp Ridley sea turtles

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Nice, clean beach, but make sure you bring everything thing you need with you (towels, chairs, sunscreen, food/drinks) because there is only a small gift shop there with very limited items, mostly souvenirs.

5/5 - Excellent

Absolutely gorgeous Tx. Beach, well maintained. We attended a turtle hatchling release (they are at 6:45 am, and are scheduled by the park service I think), so we were very lucky to be able to attend a public viewing during the days we were scheduled to be in Corpus.
