Corpus Christi Beaches Map
Bay Beaches
Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation maintains two bayfront beaches set along Corpus Christi Bay. Both North Beach and McGee Beach offer natural beauty with close proximity to the city's downtown, marina, and local attractions.
Gulf Beaches
Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation partners with Nueces County and the State of Texas to manage Gulf Beaches. Mustang Island State Park, North Packery Beach, Whitecap Beach, and Padre Balli Park offer endless recreational opportunities for visitors and locals. Swim in the warm waters, build a stunning sandcastle, or simply relax with your toes in the sun-kissed sand and breathe in the salty fresh air—ah!
Sunrise Beach and Campgrounds
Sunrise Beach Campground and RV Park is located in San Patricio County on Lake Corpus Christi. It is owned and operated by Corpus Christi Water. From tent sites to full RV hookups there's a place for adventure for everyone.
