The Beach at Port Aransas, Texas
Port Aransas is a beach town in Texas on the Gulf of Mexico. And just to make sure you're pronouncing it correctly, "Aransas" rhymes with Kansas, not Arkansas. The locals refer to it as "Port A".
The closest city is Corpus Christi, about an hour drive away. Port Aransas is on the northern tip of an island called "Mustang Island", so named after the mustang horses which used to inhabit the place.
Getting to the beach itself is very easy. There are several access roads that take you right to the sand. Regular vehicles can drive on the beach, although driving conditions vary. If it's rained recently, the sand is probably packed down pretty good, making beach driving fairly easy. If it's been a drive summer, the sand is loose and driving on the beach can be tenuous.
It's a great place for fishing, boating, shrimping, body surfing, building sand castles, beach combing, swimming, sunning, relaxing, exploring, golfing, bird watching, star gazing, walking, running and driving.

Sandollar Sity is a condo right on the beach at mile marker 18 (meaning that it's about 1.8 miles south of the jetty). It's located near Access Road 1A.

I guess if you can't go fishing yourself, you can watch other people bringing in their catch. They come in all day, but there are some boat trips that come back around 3pm and again around 6pm. (Central Time)

...About Port Aransas, Texas
I have been visiting Port Aransas since 1984 when I moved to Texas. It's about a 4 hour drive from my house in central Texas. My husband and I like being on the beach and have never done the fishing thing that so many other Port Aransas visitors like to do. We drive onto the beach, set up our chairs and canopy, put on suntan lotion, test the waters, look for shells and sand dollars, watch people in the water and on the sand, watch the birds, play in the waves, have a drink, read a newspaper, do a puzzle book, take a nap...!In this lens, I'll highlight the good parts about Port Aransas and what to expect if you decide to go. But I'm not going to paint the rosy picture that the business owner's might portray, because no beach or beach town is flaw-free. We've been to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world and yet they have their issues too. The trick is for the beach town or village to have enough good things to outweigh the negative. We think Port Aransas does that, otherwise, we would not return as often as we do.
...2008 Beach Season is Open
May 9-12, 2008
I just returned from our first beach visit of the season and can report that Port Aransas is still a great beach to go to. Schools in Texas are out or almost out and the beach area is starting to fill up.
The best news I can report is that there is very little seaweed compared to last year. Last year, we had to dig a path through the seaweed just to get to the water, and once at the water's edge, you were still surrounded by seaweed. It's much nicer this year, though there's still those small pieces of seaweed floating around in the water.
We did see more jellyfish left on the shore by the waves. Only a few of the "blue bags" - the term I have given to the Portugese Man of War. Not much trash or tar on the beach.
Driving conditions were good, specifically between Access Road 1A and mile marker 40. We have a car and were not even concerned about getting stuck in the sand.
It was very windy this weekend, the water was choppy and murky. I'm not sure what the water temperature was but it's warm enough for swimming.
Another great weekend at the beach!

That thick line in the middle of the beach is parked cars. They park next to a series of short poles (to keep cars from getting closer to the water). You can see those same poles from the Sanddollar Sity Webcam. The link from the picture goes to a webcam from Sandollar Sity, which, if you have really sharp eyes, you could see in the upper of this photo just about where the width of the beach gets narrow.

It's a short drive from Port Aransas but well worth it. You can get up close and personal with whooping cranes and alligators. The time we wen there with our dog, they told us to leave the dog in the car because it will look like dinner to the alligators!
You know you're in for an adventure when their website offers this advice:
"Alligators and poisonous snakes are present; always watch your step."
"Dress appropriately. Bring a hat, water, snack, sunscreen, insect repellent, bird book, flower book, binoculars, camera, etc."

First Baptist Church of Port AransasThis is the church I go to sometimes when I'm at Port Aransas. The services I went to were more contemporary than traditional, and many people wear shorts. I think the locals wear dress-casual but they realize that tourists may only have beach wear with them.

Sargassum
Sargassum is a seaweed that floats along in huge clumps until it eventually makes landfall. The birds love to pick through it for some tasty snacks.
It's a very natural part of the beach experience.
It seemed to overtake the beach in 2005 making it really unpleasant.

HOW TO GET THERE
It's an island so you have to cross some water to get there.
...How to Get to Port Aransas, TX
Four Options:
1. Ride the free ferry
2. Drive over the bridge
3. Drive your boat to the marina
4. Fly your plane to the airport
1. Ride the free ferry
2. Drive over the bridge
3. Drive your boat to the marina
4. Fly your plane to the airport
- Ferry Cam, Harbor Island
- Ride the free ferry to Port Aransas
The ferry is run by the Texas Department of Transportation. It's free and operates 24/7. Each ferry holds about 20 vehicles, including cars, trucks, boat trailors, and RVs. You can stand out on the deck during the ride and feel the sun and breeze, watch for dolphins, and get some good panoramic views. It's the most common way for locals to get on and off the island. - Mustang Beach Airport (KRAS)
- The airport is at the intersection of Highway 361 and Access Road 1A. It's all private planes, so don't try looking for it on Priceline or Travelocity! Sometimes they offer helicopter rides - I'm not sure how much they cost or how long they last.

I couldn't have thought up that sentence by myself - it came from the NDBC, who uses buoys to gather information about the sea around it. What they are saying is that they have buoys all over the place and they record information like water temperature, wind speed and direction, wave height, and barometric pressure.

To QB7: No you don't have to take a ferry to get to Port A! If you are on the north side, the ferry is convenient out of Aransas Pass. However, if you come from the south or want to not take the ferry go to SPID (South Padre Island Drive) on south side of Corpus and take a wonderful causeway (They've raised and widened it in the last 5 years.) to Mustang Island. You take a left on the island and have a very flat drive for 20 miles or so to Port A.
I've vacationed in Port A for over 30 years; even lived there for a year and taught in Corpus. Will retire from teaching in Dallas ISD May 2010 and intend to live in Port A forever! I'm a beach bum at heart! The locals are wonderful! Oh, and let's not forget the wonderful restaurants, local drinking dives, and wonderful music especially at holidays! The fresh fish from the ocean is everywhere. A grill is a must! See y'all there! If anyone wants to contact me, I'm at portaransas2010@yahoo.com.
