Elis Mom: It is beautiful and relaxing. I like the art displays and location. Others that were visiting were friendly as well. A great view of the iconic bridge. I wish the fountain was on. That is why I rated only 4 stars.
Jenny Milczewski: Pretty nice beach. Amazing views of the USS Lexington and the Corpus Christi city skyline. There are a few gift shops, restaurants, and condos/hotels along the beach too. And theres a rental booth for kayaks and jet skis right on the beach near N Shoreline Blvd and Coastal Ave. Parking is available for $0.25 per 20 minutes in metered spots. There is also a parking lot between Palace Beachwear & Gifts and Splash Clothing Store on N Shoreline Blvd offering full day parking for $5 (I went on a Saturday, so Im not sure about parking during the week).
I read somewhere that there was a ferris wheel here but I did not see it. Compared to Holiday Beach in Port A this beach (and Corpus Christi as a whole) seemed a little dirty run down: many boarded up and closed down shops and a few vagrants.
Overall it was a very nice day.
L.E. Decker: The sunset ride was a surprise for my birthday. We had such a great time and will definitely recommend to others. I love that you use rescued horses! Please consider adding a cashless way to tip guides. They were great!!
Kristen Rivera: Fun little stop off to stretch your legs on a road trip, snap a few great photos , and if prepared participate in the fun. Be aware as is the surroundings, youre in the open so be prepared for uneven ground and heat. Its conveniently located off the access road at the mouth of a neighborhood so theres easy parking.
Neil Harrietha: This is a great place to stop.It is free.You can park your motor home, or youre tractor trailer. It is right beside I-40. Easy to get on and off the interstate. You can buy spray paint there.
"ROUTE 66"
Ja Ric: Route 66 landmark- also known as the āMother Roadā. The Will Rogers Highway, Main Street of America is a historic highway in the US that runs from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California.
Noel Lee: Wow! What an awesome place! This is the hot spot for your junior naturalist/future scientist! We were passing through from Colorado and looking for somwhere to take the kids on our route. Our 4 year old twins had a blast! We enjoyed it as well! It was hard to pick a favorite because every part was great! I did love the tree house area with the scat and track displays and the birds of prey taxidermy! We didnt realize how fun it would be and wish we couldve stayed longer. We stayed about 3 hours. In that time we explored the whole center and even got to watch a movie in the planetarium. The gift shop was small, but very affordable! Check this place out ESPECIALLY if you have kids!
Sandefur Laine (Vivian): Fun stop, easy to get to and free to enter. Good photo ops but the cars are all close together so watch out for spray painting and stay upwind of it. Ive gone to the original bug ranch for decades so I had to see where the bugs had been moved to, definitely doesnt have the same ambiance but its still fun.
