Gonna Be in Corpus

[brad]

So I'm going to be in Corpus for a week.. much needed and long delayed anniversary trip for my wife and I..

So other than Port Aransas Wildlife Refuge... what's photographic down there these days?

I frequently go to the Rockport/Fulton area. There are some good things to shoot around there. Do a search for either, here in the forum, and see what you find.

If the weather's good while you're down, there are many outdoor possibilities. Indoors, we have facilities galore.
-Mustang Island Nat'l Seashore
-South TX Botanical Gardens
-CC Bayfront/Seawall
-Padre Island National Seashore
-The Lexington Museum on North Beach is pretty nice.
-Sunset Lake/Indian Point in between Corpus Christi & Portland is a little known hideaway with some great sunset views and quite a bit of wildlife.
-My kids love the Texas State Aquarium. Plenty to see & do with the Lexington right next door & a quiet small beach to take a stroll on.
-If you're there on the weekend, Tx A&M-CC has some nooks & crannies to explore. There's even a hike & bike trail that goes around the entire island campus and a small beach on the road side.
-I've taken a few strolls through Hans Suter Park (near TxA&M-CC) and have always found quite a bit of bird-life.
-There's quite a few small parks on Ocean Drive in between the university & downtown. They all offer nice views of the bay.
-Clustered around the American Bank Center are
+the Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History
+the Art Museum and Water Gardens
+Museum of Asian Cultures

I've lived here since '97 and this town has grown on me.
If there's something more specific you're looking at, let me know & I'll try to help out. Either way, enjoy your stay down here!
