I love everything about Padre. This was North Padre. Did you know you can drive from North Padre down to South Padre on the beach? It is about 60 miles. It is best to have a four wheel drive. I found two sand dollars that were perfect. I always find lots of interesting things on the beach.

Ok, so this camping beach was basically a sand road with outhouses. The beach here seems to get covered with seaweed quite often, NOT pristine sand (kind of a clay mix), and since dogs are allowed on the beach also beware of those horse-dog droppings which people so often feel the need to bury instead of pick up.

We enjoyed the beach, but there wasn't really anything about it, other than the lack of vehicles on the beach, to distinguish it from other bits of beach further up the coast.

This beach doesn't look kept up at all. When we got out of our car, we could not believe that this beach was so dirty. There was trash and seaweed everywhere. The people hanging out on this beach made us feel uncomfortable so we left.

We were on vacation in San Antonio and made the drive (about 2 hours) to visit the beach. We did not camp, but just visited the day area. I think it was $5 for each adult to enter. The kids had fun playing in the water and sand. We drove down the beach toward the jetties and did a little... More

The bathrooms were clean and so was the shower area. Campground has free wifi. The campground hosts were fantastic. He was super helpful helping us find places... More

I love the fact that I can fish from the State Park without a Texas Fishing license. The patrols are frequent making for a safe environment. The dislike is the seaweed piled up on the beach, but that is nature. LOL

Had a wonderful time with my family there. The beach is clean, peaceful, and beautiful. The kids really enjoyed it. If you want a beach to relax in , this is the one. Look forward to going back again in the summer!
