Probably one of the most underrated parks in South Texas…read more How do I know it's underrated? Well, it wasn't even on Yelp! But seriously, I love coming here on a sunny day. You will find mainly locals, parasailers, and fishermen here, which makes it more appealing. It is mostly unencumbered by any touristy overflow from across the bridge. It is a truly beautiful nature preserve.

Really enjoyed the pier and seeing the views. Lots of people fishing which gave for extra…read moreentertainment. The pier was in great condition and they are in the process of adding a covered shaded area at the entrance. Walked over to the playground which had lots of options for kids and really liked the splash park. That would come in handy for these hot summer days.

Cole Park is an excellent amenity to Corpus living!…read more It is located just South of McGee Beach where Shoreline Blvd turns into Ocean Dr. Most visitors and tourists ignore it because it is not the beach, but once you get familiar with the park, you'll see all it has to offer. And it is quite large and currently under redevelopment with more improvements I remember when lockdowns ended in 2020 and public amenities became accessible again. This was one of the first parks I started to frequent again. I often go downtown for dining and work events, and find myself going for walks here afterwards.

Picked up across the ferry from Port Aransas. Wait for ferry was almost 2 hours crossing back from…read morebait shop where we were picked up & dropped off. Fishing guide urinated off the side of the boat twice. He didn't have shrimp as bait because he was allergic. I would not recommend this charter. Pick another. Would have drove to Corpus Christi marina (40 mins away) if I'd known. Also faster getting back to Port Aransas. Took away from the day. Pick a better charter. More knowledgeable for the $650 price tag.

Unfortunately, I ended up having to cancel my trip with Coastal Charters. But I was very impressed…read morewith their service. They were very friendly and very accommodating. Their boats and pricing also seemed very reasonable compared to others. They also have one of the best cancel policies I found out of Port Arkansas. As long as you cancel two weeks before your trip, no questions asked full refund. While I may not be able to use them in the short term, their service will have me booking with them again in the future.

Very impressed at the freshness and packaging in a zip lock bag helped with keeping them moist throughout the day. Friendly and quick service. Easy stop off causeway and we used the service road to cross under to the pier to fish. We will definitely visit again!

We just rented a fishing rod, but would consider a kayak the next time around. I liked how easy it was to be in and out, without discarding customer service.

I thought this park would be a great place for my grandson to go burn off some energy looking at…read moredolphins and passing boats. As it turned out, my son and his wife took him there without me. They said he really had a great time, although he didn't see dolphins. Later the same day, my younger son and I stopped in so I could take pictures. We parked by the observation tower and went up the stairs to see the view. We saw boats and dolphins on our visit. I especially enjoyed watching the comings and goings of the ferry boats. This is a beautiful park. Besides the observation tower, they have a play area and a fishing pier. It was too hot and humid for me to stay much longer than we did, but in cooler weather, it would be fun to just sit on a pier and watch the boats coming and going for a few hours.

Located by the Ferries, this place was great for kids to play and family to watch dolphins. They…read morealso have plenty of parking and public restrooms making it accessible for everyone.

Captain Frankie enjoys every moment of a trip and has a relaxed attitude that puts everyone on the boat at ease. From pros to the novice he will make sure everyone enjoys the trip. He has all right equipment to make sure you have a successful trip. He has been great with my son and took the time to help him learn about spotting fish and tips on handling his gear. I'm a discerning client, but I can't say enough positive things about Captain Frankie.
