    So glad you’ll enjoyed our sweet little beach. I grew up tent camping with my grandma. Crabbing. Swimming our summers away. Cruising up and down as a teenager and young adult. Weekends in summer gets crowded! Glad you’ll felt welcomed and safe here!!

    You all were in my area of Texas. I live about 20 miles from there and have been going to that beach since I was a child. I suppose you gals drove down to the other end of the road to Indianola. Not much there anymore but a historic cemetery and houses. If you look up Indianola it was a large shipping port back in the day. It was a big thriving city with stores and a railroad and residents. It went through two almost back to back hurricanes that destroyed the city. I think they had a breakout of cholera or scarlet fever or something like that and all three awful events drove the rest of the folks away. When I was watching your previous video, I was pretty sure you were at Magnolia Beach.
    Don’t miss Padre Island down by Corpus Christi. It’s beautiful. Hope you all enjoy your visit to Texas!

    When you take the ferry over to Port Aransas, off to the left there is an awesome day use park called Roberts Point Park. Drive to the end, sit on a bench and watch the dolphins surf with the ships. You won’t be disappointed! 🐬

    I drive 80 miles to the beaches and I just spend the day
    The color of the water might be from run off water from storms.
    Continue on having a great trip.

    Magnolia Beach & Port Aransas are my favorites. I am actually going there in a few days. I love going in October. Most of our Texas beaches are very nice. Be careful for deep loose sand and high tides at some of our beaches. Hope you have experienced our good Texas hospitality!! Enjoy yourselves!

    Beautiful spot. I was wondering how come it was so calm compared to the store that is brewing and going to hit the coast of Florida, but Magnolia Beach is actually not on the ocean. It’s on like an inlet bay, Matagorda Bay, which may be one of the reasons why the beach sand isn’t a sandy, it’s more chunky. All beach Sand is actually ground sea shells. 🐚

    The water on our Texas beaches isn’t as crystal clear as Florida because we get a lot of water from the mouth of the Mississippi that still has a lot of soil and earth murking up the gulf. I think it clears up the farther south you go.
