Chute ‘Em Up Parasail has been flying high over Port Aransas for the last 22 years with over 50,000 flights. So, stay dry or get dipped in the water. Take off and land right off the back of the boat.

Be a part of a Corpus Christi tradition by running in the Beach to Bay Relay Marathon, the largest and most beloved long-distance race, celebrated by many runners, reuniting them with friends they’ve made from marathons past. Test your endurance and sign up for the six-leg running event that honors the men and women serving in the United States Military with sincere pride, and all it takes is a little sweat, an occasional tear, and a bunch of smiles.

If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind experience, you might want to check out King Ranch, one of the biggest ranches in the world, with a whopping 825,000 acres of land. You'll get a fascinating inside look at how cattle handling works on such a massive property and explore some historically significant buildings to learn about the King family, who built this impressive empire. Amazingly, Dallas was modeled after this very same ranch back in the 80s. Even though you won't bump into JR himself, taking the tour is still an incredible way to spend your time, especially if you're interested in ranching or want to experience something truly unique.
