SOUTH TEXAS BEACHES & RESORTS
Best Time to Go & Visit & Travel to Texas
The south Texas
coast involves a 100-mile strip with excellent (though windy)
beach resorts. Galveston (near Houston), Corpus Christy and
Padre Island Seashore are the main travel references in this
coast.
Sun, beach-life, outdoors activities and fishing are the great
attractions of South Texas. Between the many outdoor activities
we may mention golf, surfing, bird watching, dolphin watching or
biking.

BEST TIME TO
VISIT SOUTH TEXAS
The south Texas
weather is mainly subtropical in summer, with temperatures persistently around the 90ºF / 32ºC.
Winters tend to be mild (though temperatures may drop to the
40ºF-50ºF / 4-10ºC in many days). The south Texas coast is a
favourite winter refuge for many people, but South
Texas most popular (and crowded) season is undoubtedly Summer.
Spring and Fall are also excellent months for a visit. The
weather and temperatures are excellent (though the sea
temperatures aren’t as good as the Summer ones). Fall is an
excellent period for those betting in fishing and in low hotel
rates.
WHEN
NOT
TO GO TO SOUTH TEXAS
Summer
is a busy season in South Texas (and also in the Spring Break
two weeks period, when hundreds of thousands of college students
come to south) with high hotel prices. If you
want to avoid crowds or high accommodation rates, avoid Summer
and the Spring Break.
Winter brings many people from northern states (golf, surf, bird
watching and fishing are popular winter activities).
Nevertheless, if you want to fully enjoy the Texan sea and beach
life, avoid winter. Air temperatures rarely drop below the
40ºF-50ºF (5º-10ºC) but they aren't exactly the ideal for
swimming and beach life.
