South Padre "must see's" recommendations ?

Post by CamoCuda »

Headed to South Padre in a couple weeks, staying in a condo on the beach. Any "must see's" or recommendations?
Never been & we'll have our twin 3yr olds with. Planning plenty of beach time, not bringing the yak.
Restaurants? Kayak shops?
Saw the pontoon dolphin trip, sea turtle rescue & maybe aquarium in Corpus on the way back to SA.
Thanks

See Tony at UB Captain for a great kayak shop. If you like Italian, try Gabriellas and for a dining experience over the water go to Pier 19. Don't forget Port Isabel for a tour of the light house and Pirates Landing, a restaurant the kids will love.

If you have the time, a trip to Brownsville (20 minutes) and the zoo would be great for the kids.
