Brookdale Corpus Christi

Watch the winds take the sails at the weekly Corpus Christi Marina's Sailboat Races. Spectators who show up early can volunteer to join a crew for those captains who are willing. Or you can always sit and watch the races while cheering on your favorite team.

Check out one of the biggest festivals that Corpus Christi has to offer, the annual Buc Days Celebration, where you can enjoy the Stripes Carnival, the Shops at Treasure Island, Buckin’ Marlin Stage, BBQ On The Bay, Robotics Rodeo, and the Wings Over South Texas. Celebrate the people and communities that make the city shine. During the Rally Night Parade at Buc Days, you’ll see marching bands, spirited dancing, dazzling floats, and the Official Wrecker Service, Apollo Towing, clear the route for all the fun. There’s something for buccaneers of every age right here in the heart of the city by the sea.

Come aboard, matey, and have a blast on the open water as you sail toward the unforgettable Port Aransas views on the Island Queen II and the Mustang. Start the day with dolphin sightings and end with gorgeous sunset cruises for a day you’ll never forget. Between bay fishing, dolphin watching nature tours, and birding, there’s no shortage of new things to try on deck.

Take a meaningful stroll through The University Galleries at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, which accommodates both the Weil Gallery and the Islander Art Gallery. Here you will be impressed by the traditional gallery spaces used for screenings, symposia, and exhibitions of work by TAMU-CC graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, and visiting artists from the local, national, and international contexts.
