Local beach
Great family friendly beach located on Arkansas bay in Rockport (5 min away). Good for kids as there are no strong currents / riptides like beached on the Gulf. Waves are typically modest and the depth is very gradual. Our kids love it.

Great pizza and some of the best homemade fettuccini around! Waits can be very long so call or go early. Sometimes easier to call in ToGo order and then find a table when you pick up.
