9 Best Beach Towns in Texas, According to Locals

"A remote, park-based beach offering an isolated outdoor adventure across more than a thousand acres, with opportunities for swimming, camping, birding, surfing, and fishing—and the dramatic backdrop of visible rocket launches from a nearby launch site. For a change of pace, nearby historic downtown areas and a regional zoo and museums provide additional cultural and educational outings." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.

A lot of jellyfish - beautiful, but I’m super hesitant to get into the water. Narrow beach - wouldn’t want to get stuck during high tide. Soft sand - also wouldn’t want my vehicle to get stuck during high- would advise a 4x4. Fairly peaceful. I sincerely hope people don’t disturb wildlife.

Best place in SPI to view sunrise. On the same trip, you can see Elon's Space X launch pads. Extremely impressive!

Surprisingly nice beach with very few people. Also great view of Space X manufacturing and launch facility. Beach access is closed during SpaceX launches. There aren’t any public restrooms or food options nearby so come prepared and bring your own food, water, and supplies.

Very nice quiet beach. We were warned to bring bug spray but we were there in August and bugs weren't a problem, at least in the daytime. We saw some vehicles on the beach, but all 4wd or AWD. We did not chance getting our rental Camry struck in the sand

Dolphin cove was an epic visit. We caught the sunrise along with many species of fish; saw a sea turtle, dolphins, majestic birds and more... picked up a few very cool seashells too just around the jeddies.

Love Boca Chica beach! We come here every time we’re down here to visit family, and it’s beautiful. I’m also a fan of Space X so it’s great to see their progress on the way out here too. This trip there was a ton of shells, and the weather was perfect!

Just beautiful. Get a nice view of SpaceX and the Cyber Truck Hive on the way.

Very cool location, you drive next to SpaceX and have a great view of the launch facilities from the beach. Many shells on this beach.
