Beautiful

This is a beautiful seashore. The area is so green and plain. The beach is beautiful, although the color of the water is not as clean and beautiful as beaches in California. The wind and sea waves give a special feeling. There are beautiful see shells of different colors, washed away by the wave. They immediately sink into the sand to escape from predatory birds. It is a nice scene.

This place is awesome! You can splash around in the water during the day, or you can look for ghost crabs at night!

Dunes!! The dunes here serve as a nesting ground for the critically endangered Kemp's ridley sea turtle. Head to Malaquite Beach from mid-June through August to watch the hatchlings as they scurry into the Gulf of Mexico.

I can't say enough about how fun this National Seashore is. First, you can drive and camp on the beach! Second, this is the DOG FRIENDLIEST of any national park I've been to. (In fact, Corpus Christi was quite dig friendly on the whole.) The Gulf winds bring a lot of trash onto this beach, so don't expect raked beaches of Mexico or pristine shoreline of Costa Rica. Instead, consider pitching in. The visitors center offers bags and Dumpsters. For me, an hour or two of trash pickup was fun since I'd be walking the beach anyway. It was also appreciated - I got a sew on patch :).
