Buslife at Bird Island Basin Campground on Padre Island
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Sometimes you just go ahead and pay for camping but at $4 a night, you can afford it! Bird Island Basin is on the intracoastal side of Padre Island. It is a lot calmer with almost no waves. Lots of fishing and sailboarding happens there.
Our stay there was awesome. The people, the water, and the sunsets were all amazing. It is a great place to visit!

About Us:
Hi! We're Mike & Kerry, the proud owners of a 1992 Bluebird rear engine (pusher), 40' school bus! We named her Bussy McBusface in honor of the RRS Boaty McBoatface travesty!
We built a Tiny-Home-in-a-Bus for full-time living in the most adventure-friendly way possible. Bussy was never meant to be parked in a driveway, waiting for weekend trips or holiday getaways. After we finished the build, we packed everything we kept into the bus and drove away from our old house and into the world of off-grid living, aka boondocking, and endless travel adventures!
Since we planned to be boondocking the majority of the time, we made choices such as; a 100-gallon water tank, an Air Head composting toilet, a 1500w solar power system with 1000Ah in AGM batteries, etc. We'd love to have you stick around and follow us on our journey, from our Skoolie Build Series, to infinite buslife adventures beyond!
Mike & Kerry
Wow, what a great time of rving and meeting new people. The lagoon side looks awesome. Thanks Don
This is SO Texas!I'm glad everyone was so friendly
Merry Christmas from the Bird Island Turkey crew. Glad you enjoyed your stay at one of the best windsurfing launches, and that you could partake in our festivities. It's our pleasure to welcome all.
Cheers!
Brian & Lynne
Hi Brian & Lynne, great to camp with you here at Bird Island (B.I.B.) for Turkey Day. You all made it festive & fun. 💗
Wow! Kevin really hit it out of the park with the gifts! One day you can meet Kevin in person.
Hi Mike, Hi Kerry, Merry Christmas to you all, I hope you have a great time, wish I could share it with you but you are never far from my thoughts, even more so at Christmas.. I am so pleased you got your parcel and I hope you enjoy its content, I hope Mike enjoys his..I hope your Grandson gets some pleasure from his bus, I am sorry I took the blade out of the pencil sharpener bus just in case your grandson put his finger inside and he got cut from it.. The video Kerry was a great one, I always look forward to them, they have all been very interesting..I hope your daughter has a safe trip home Kerry and she has a great Christmas.. Well you two time to go but stay well and stay safe and enjoy your Christmas and I look forward to seeing you next time..Love you both as always...K.
Thank you Kevin! A merry Christmas to you and yours. ❤️
Always sad when your baby leaves, huh? I got teared up seeing her drive away thinking of my baby! She has an awesome hobby!! I bet she loved riding on the beach:)
Another FUN video!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Man that looks like y'all had an awesome thanksgiving... Here's to a wonderful Christmas and the best in the new year!!!
I’m finally getting a chance to see this on Xmas day so, happy thanksgiving, merry Xmas, and happy new year! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us!
Corpus is known as the windsurfing capital of the world. Around christmas they have a sailboat parade down town and they decorate the boats with christmas lights
Too soon after the storm to have good visibility. I hated that when I used to scuba dive. Wasted trip, money, time. But I will definitely bring my snorkel gear with me when I get on the road 😎
Have a fantastic Christmas 🎄 and a happy new year 🎉 x
Merry Christmas to y’all! It’s gonna be a hot one in Texas this year! Definitely beach weather!
Hi Mike & Kerry! Great video of your time with us here at Bird Island Basin Campground within the Padre Island National Seashore. It was great fun meeting & visiting with you both. Camping along the shores of the Laguna Madre is a blessing in serenity for sure. Peace & quiet. The graceful passing of the windsurfers and then Mother Nature throws in a few days here and there with high winds & rain (that Thansgiving night topped 35 mph) just to keep it interesting. 😊
I wanted to clarify that campsites here at BIB are $8 a day. At Malaquite camp on the gulf side it is $14 a day. The half-priced ($4 or $7 a day) fee applies to the Senior & Disability All Access passes only. The text is admittedly a bit confusing. Camping on North & South Beach is free with a permit. There are current stay limits in place with the Padre Island National Seashore; 14 days in the park (total any camp organized or beach), 14 days out of park and then another 14 days in the park for a total of 28 days per year. Just to avoid any confusion or disappointment of future campers. 😊😜
We drove up Beach recently and went right past you guys. Cute Yule Tree. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Come back to visit us! Kimberly, Derick & Toby too 💗
If you're still there in January you might get to see SpaceX fly their Starship the first time. You can see it from the south end of the island.
Merry Christmas back at ya!
Just drive by y'all out there on PINS with your horseshoe compound lol
Enjoy the beach, unseasonably warm but great weather!
It was great meeting you! Glad you enjoyed bird basin. We were (one) of the French speaking windsurfing groups :)
Merry Christmas! 🎄 🍻
KEVIN!!!!! You are Awesome!!!
Hey you guys, Merry Christmas! Love the videos as always. Love ya!
Love the videos as always gorgeous. Merry Christmas Yall and God Bless Yall
Merry Christmas and Happy Fesivus!
Happy Santa Day, to you all over there too xox ; )
When I was a kid my dad and his buddies would spear fish on the bay side at night for Flounder using a spear/gig and a spot light. They would wade in to about 4', not too deep. They'd hope to find the outline of the fish just under the sand at their feet. Seems like I remember that the only real risk was accidentally poking a stingray and getting hit by their barbed tail. But, it was a fun way to catch Flounder.
Very inspiring, we need new water tanks, all three, before we hit the road again, but we have time.
OMG! Epic. National Skoolie Graphic episode featuring the rare King Mike Fisher. Of course Mike has a wet suit / spear gun setup. Kerry, hold on tenaciously...at least he’s not boring 😉 carpe diem Love y’all Happy Holidays
Seriously, the spear diving had me next level y’all So Good
Another great video.
Merry Christmas to you Kerry and Mike. Safe travels. 🎄🎄

Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 🤶!!!
Happy New Year 🍾 🥳
There are some floating private houses that are fishing camps in the Laguna Madre,people rent them from guides.Dont know if that is what your husband saw while kayaking.
That was actually an island with houses on stilts. It was very interesting though.
Merry merry Christmas to Kerry, Mike & Mama Kitty. 🎄
Glad your adventures have been so amazing since you started out full time.
Cheers to an even more spectacular year next year. 🥂
Was there a way to get within walking distance of Small Shell and Big Shell Beach without getting a vehicle near the salt spray?
My week was spent trying to get our 5 cats to cooperate for a 12 days of Christmas YT short. 🤣🤣
Enjoy your holidays at the beach! ⛱ 🌞
-Troy & Aimee

The camping discount doesn't apply to all park passes. It's only valid with a to Senior pass or the Access pass, which is for people with disabilites. The $80 annual pass and the military pass do not entitle the holder to a discount on camping fees.
That is incorrect. The annual pass also applies per both camp host and a ranger.
@@BussyMcBusface I'm afraid you must have misunderstood. I'm a camphost at PINS and the policy is clearly stated at the registration kiosks at the campgrounds. It's also a policy that is consistent across federal lands.
Hi guys, great vid again, thanks! How's that weBoost working there? Does it help?
It definitely does.
Your daughter rides a motocross bike and she complaining about paddling a kayak? That doesn't make sense to me :P Also Merry Christmas to you all as well.
6:40…Collecting seashores…. ?!? 😜
😃
Was that the jetty at aransas. We saw two Green Ridley turtles there
This was at packery channel
Only one thing to say to that. You are not in airazona any more.
Collecting seashores??? 🤣
Ya need a weight belt there mate. Not that I’ve ever done it myself. Just that’s what everyone else seems ta use. Have ya seen Chris Barman’s vids : )
Actually I went and bought one just for that! Works great!
Speaking of bikes
Is the electric bike still with you if so is it a good ride ?
It is a very good ride. We just start breaking it out here on the salty Beach because everything here rusts.
