Head out toward the Island to experience the food and environment of the Padre Island Burger Company. This popular hangout serves up some amazing gourmet burgers - we recommend the Mr. Beckham - and the atmosphere here is laid-back and nothing short of island chic. Live music and great drink specials also add to the Burger Company's appeal.
Make a splash at Hurricane Alley! The Coastal Bend's largest and newest waterpark. The park features exciting attractions and plenty of water so you can cool off under the Texas sun. Experience the rush of the 6-story Cat 5 water slide, race down the Storm Chaser speed slide, battle the waves of the Storm Surge, or get carried away in the Gulf Stream lazy river. There are also designated areas where pint-sized visitors can have fun made just for them, and swim-up bars where adults can enjoy a drink without ever leaving the water.
Enjoy a true Texas tradition at the Texas Jazz Festival, which takes place every October. The three-day festival has taken place annually for more than 50 years, bringing the city jazz music for every age.
