How to get here
Imagine a beautiful tropical Island with
miles and miles of unspoiled beaches. It lies in
the sun beside the sparkling Gulf of Mexico. It
is a place where sparkling beaches, warm water,
friendly hospitality and relaxing activities
come together. It's not your imagination, it's
the ideal vacation paradise, it's South Padre
Island.
Located on the tropical tip of Texas, getting
here is easy. Whether you drive, fly or arrive by
boat, the Island is easily accessible. If traveling
in by air, vacationers can fly into one of three
airports in the Rio Grande Valley. Ground
transportation is available at all three airports
along with most major car rental companies and taxi
service. If traveling by car, the scenic route to
the Island is made easy by well maintained four-lane
highways. If arriving by boat, the Intercostals
channel provides access to all boats, from the
smallest to the largest.
