Corpus Christi / Port Aransas Must See & Do
Hey everyone! We have reservations for two weeks the end of March, 2017. Would some of you good folks offer some must see, must do, must eat advice please? I sure appreciate it. Brent

Fortunately, most spring break vacations will be over by the end of March.
Must sees?
Corpus Christi and Port Aransas are like night and day differences.
Big city vs laid back seashore.
Corpus Christi- USS Lexington Aircraft Carrier, Aquarium (we just spent a day in Corpus Christi, so these are the two things we did.)
Port Aransas - just lay back and relax. Visit the many bird sanctuaries, read a book on the beach, travel to Padre Island National Seashore. Port Aransas is really just a little town. Lots of interesting little places to eat and shop, most of them local and not chains.
I'm sure that regular travelers to the area can give you much more. But we were just winter-weary Northern Minnesotans who desperately wanted warmth in late February/early March and we just wanted to relax. So we went mostly to take it easy and have the ice melt off of our bodies! :) Enjoy - it is a great place.
