Padre Island offers endless things to do on your vacation, anything from horseback riding to skydiving. Of course, fishing is among the most favorite things to do. There are several fishing charters on the island offering bay and deep sea fishing.
The north end of the island is national seashore and may be driven on with a motorized vehicle or your private car, van or truck. Parasailing is a safe and relaxing way to view the island, or if you are the adventurous type, try dual skydiving with an instructor or just stroll along the eleven miles of sandy beach and watch or participate in sand castle building. In the evening enjoy a relaxing trip on one of the many dolphin cruises, watch the dolphins play and enjoy a cool and refreshing drink.
At night enjoy dinner and dancing at any one of the favorite night spots such as the Radisson Resort, Holiday Inn, Sheraton Resort or Louie's Backyard are among the many.
