Gas up the boat and head to the Texas International Fishing Tournament, the largest of its kind in the state. Cast a line and make the catch to win some money in this offshore competition. Past competitors have reeled in big fish like blue marlin, white marlin, and sailfish, along with smaller catches like speckled trout, redfish, and flounder. If you're prone to seasickness on a boat, hang out at the docks and watch the action from the shore.

Hang out at Coconuts Bar & Grill for tasty food, awesome drink specials, and fun near the coast.
