South Padre Beach Fun
If a vacation or getaway on the beach is in
your future, then you've definitely come to the right place.
South Padre Island is lined with 34 miles of
beautiful
beach where you (whether alone or with that special someone) can romp in the surf, collect seashells, and play in
the sand. Drive north of the community and you'll find that miles upon miles of this strip
of sand are completely undeveloped, ready for exploration.
Along that beach you will find a full range of
activities, from adventurous to relaxing. Take on the intimidating surf, try your
hand at building sandcastles, take the challenge of sail boarding and kite surf at
a site called "the Flats" on the north side of town, or enjoy a
once-in-a-lifetime horseback ride
down the beach.
Most of
South Padre Island's accommodations lie along
this beachfront. Families or couples can select from various
luxury hotels,
condominiums, and inexpensive motels. Over 5000 guest rooms are available.
Pick the Gulf side for a sunrise view or the lagoon side for a beautiful sunset
and an entrancing view of the surf.
Why hassle with trying to find a room once you get to the island? Stop by the
South Padre Island Hotel Guide on-line for help or just to pick up useful
links and coupons. Here you can also pick up a schedule for "The Wave," the
island's free trolley system. The trolley makes stops at attractions, shopping
areas, and many of the islands many condominiums and resort complexes.
There is also a brand new South Padre shuttle service from the
airport to the door of any hotel!
