Harbor District

Corpus Christi

Port Aransas, Texas - 9-28-2024. Port Aransas at sunset, along the ship channel, where commerce keeps moving in and out for various types of industries.
The South Jetty concrete sidewalk, with people fishing and walking, and oil tanker ships approaching from the Gulf of Mexico on the channel to Corpus Christi, Texas.
Brilliant orange sunset on a Saturday evening looking across Aransas Pass. #sunset #beachbound
A view of Aransas Pass from the Port Aransas side. At sunset, go get a pizza and watch the ships pass through and dolphins swim nearby. So much to see, and a very relaxing spot. Stay until after dark so that you can hear the dolphins pop up for air in the nearby waters. It's also a great fishing spot.
The Port Aransas Sand Fest is the last weekend in April, and has some of the most spectacular professional sand sculptures you'll ever see on display. We enjoyed driving our car right on the beach and bringing our own beverages and chairs to cool off on the beach afterward.
