I go to Galveston maybe one out of five times that I have to visit Houston. I like to look at the beach, visit the historic areas, and visit the air museum. Most of the time, however, I find much more to do in Houston.
Corpus Christi to me is just another mid-size city that has sprawled into the surrounding countryside to be a mid-size metropolitan area, too young to have the historical attraction of other similar size port cities like Mobile, Savannah, or Wilmington. I drive through Corpus Christi to get to the barrier islands, Mustang Island and Padre Island, which for me are the real attractions. I prefer to go north onto Mustang, into Port Aransas. Others like South Padre.
