Nicest area is Mustang Island and Padre Island. Both allow boondocking right on the beach.
Is that North or South Padre Island. I am looking for a place on SPI for late October.
Mustang is North Padre just south of Aransas Pass & north of North Padre. It is nice & not a busy area but colder & windier than South Padre.
I know where Mustang is, spent some time there a year ago. I was asking about SPI (South Padre Island).
Two places are on SPI itself, a KOA and the County campgrounds. For a short term off season stay I would recommend the KOA. For longer stays during peak time then the County campgrounds will save $$$$, but you get what you pay for also.
Port Isabel off the causeway has several campgrounds, but it would be best to look at them first. DW would never stay in any of them. If you're a fisherman and enjoy social hour then that's another story.
Long Island is in Port Isabel and is a gated private owned RV/home community. Another one that would be a personal call based on what you're looking for.
