Corpus Christi/Rockport/North Padre

Currently you can not camp in the county or State Park. State park closed yesterday. I don't know if National Sea Shore is still open or not.

I checked the national seashore and it is open for day use and closed for overnight camping because the Coronavirus only comes out at night. Or maybe it's because the people running the parks are stupid.

Check the corpusfishing.com website. The fisherman have the updated information on the parks and seashore.

I don't know all the parks in detail, but almost everywhere I've been does not have an actual view of the Gulf from the campground.

There is a dune running almost all the way up the coast, and the campgrounds are behind the dune.

There are a few places on the islands where someone camp on the actual beach, but they are (1) boondocking with no hookups ro facilities of any kind, and (2) not for heavy rigs, probably less than 6,000 lbs. would be bests.

I think you are going to find more and more of this as things unfold. Small towns are looking to take care of themselves. They don't have resources for large amounts of outsiders. It wasn't that long ago that the Rockport area was hit by a hurricane. They were probably still just getting back to normal, now this. This is why full timers need to get somewhere fast, and stay there.

You make a valid point. There's not a lot of fun in touring the country if I can't do much once I get to a new area. And it is cheaper to rent by the month. I'm paying $30 a night at the RV park where I am today. I can rent 1 month here for $300. That's about 20 free nights, minus some electricity. Maybe I have to bunker down until this country becomes a little bit free again.

Why would you not spend money in Port Aransas. They are not doing anything that many others cities have already done, AND there was reported cases in that area following spring break !
