I thought it was time for another review of this park since the last one was from six years ago…read morefrom this writing. It also looks like there have been some recent additions since the last review. The park is located at a crosswalk next to an RV park on Avenue G. There is actually a lot to see here starting with a very long paved nature trail running through a nature preserve with observation areas and continues on by the ship channel. You will also find 3 ball diamonds, a large baseball field, a little league diamond, and a T-ball diamond complete with batting cages. Other amenities include a fenced in dog park, a community pool, a soccer field, basketball court, public bathrooms and a large children's play scape. On the property is also a frisbee golf course and skateboard park. You will also find five fenced in pickleball courts that look like they were just built yesterday. The pickle ball courts are open to the public at no cost. There are some covered picnic tables directly next to the pool and a couple of tables in the dog park. This is definitely one of the nicest community parks you will find anywhere.

Located on Cut Off Road, jusy behind San Juan Taqueria, this unexpected gem is an oasis in the…read moremiddle of the island, and a nice place to visit with your bird watchers, wildlife lovers or kiddos. Dedicated in 2002, Paradise Pond is a 2-acre habitat that provides an excellent example of public/private collaboration. A group of birders who won the Great Texas Birding Classic designated the prize money for the purchase of land located behind a local motel. Several donations of land, additional grants and other funding sources helped to complete the project that birders from across the country now enjoy. Paradise Pond is a stop on the spring migratory route for smaller warblers and other songbirds, while many feathered friends call the pond home all year long. The wheelchair accessible boardwalk and 3 observation decks provide easy access to get "up close and personal" with the birds under a mantle of trees. There is a sitting area at the entrance for watching butterflies, dragonflies and birds, along with information about the flowers and the butterflies that the flowers attract. Private donations of land, foundation funds and teamwork helped make Paradise Pond part of the Birding Trail of Texas. Visitors flock from across the country for a sitting here...and you should too!

There was some sort of event taking place at this particular park. As a result, we were only able to check out a few of the historical homes located here. Seemed like there was a lot to take in but were pleased with what we saw. The city did a great job procuring the various historical homes and placing them along the street corridor. We will definitely come back here again if and when we are back in town.

Labonte Brothers Park! This is a sun bleached stretch of…read morepark just north of Corpus Christi where you can go and possibly fish under a bridge. The park is basically a turn around next to the Nueces River, that goes around I-37. The park has been messed up for a while as they go and replace the bridge that goes over the Nueces. They're making it a higher bridge, and have the whole place torn up. There's no trees or any shade. The park offers a bunch of picnic tables that overlook the river. If you're a fisher, it'd be a good place to grill up some river catfish. There are no restrooms here. No running water. Dogs are welcome here. You can probably run them off a leash, as I hardly ever see anyone here. Just make sure they don't jump in the river.

People camp out here and all. This is the area where the famous Nueces River ends and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. It runs alongside the back part of the park. Passing by here you can see the number of people walking around and enjoying the sounds of the river as it makes its way over the final embankment and into the bay.

The Oso Bay Wetlands Preserve has been a place of refuge for me over the years. A place I come to…read morepause, quiet the mind, and reflect. Why? Well, just look at some of the pictures, and you'll get the idea. It is the best and most well kept public nature spot in Corpus Christi, for sure. If you do not know, Oso Bay is where Oso Creek eventually spills out into the bay. It is a really great representation of the ecological beauty and complexity of the area. I can see why so many families and friends frequently come here in groups. In short, it is "Not Your Typical Park". If you are visiting Corpus, for whatever reason, I highly recommend going out of your way to visit this not so hidden treasure!

I'm not sure if the last hurricane dried up these wetlands but things were very dry as of April 2022 and it wasn't much of a wetland at all. They have some really nice park features in the front. Trails are good but are not well marked as indicated by other reviewers but it's not difficult to figure out. There is little shade and the trees seem to really hold in the humidity so bring lots to drink, sunscreen, and maybe frequent in the am or when it's cooled down in the evening. Please pay attention to the rattlesnake signs and stay on the trails

We spent about 90 minutes at this park, primarily on the boardwalk. We also drove to the area along the water, where people were fishing. The road is pretty rutted and uneven. Our purpose in visiting the park was to look for migrating bird species. While I ended up photographing mostly hummingbirds, there were also orchard and Baltimore orioles, scissor-tailed flycatchers, and other migrating species to be found. There are a few shady refuges for those visiting the park, mainly along the boardwalk. One has a good seating area. This is an unheralded gem of a place to visit... and it's adjacent to another cool spot, the Texas Sealife Center, a volunteer-run rescue facility.
