This is great having our own Texas chat thread!

I need some advice from my fellow Texans on where to stay this summer around Port Aransas. I haven't been there since I was a kid. Anybody been there lately?

I go to Port Aransas every other week. The island has sure changed in the last 15 or so years. It's no longer the sleepy fishing center it used to be.
Today it has many places to stay from cabins to hotel rooms to condominiums. There's palm trees lining the road from the ferry and they have a great parks system as well.
Let me know what price range or size/type of place you want to stay at and I can rattle you off a few names and locations.
You are going to love it there. Very nice place.

I have an Uncle David there who owns a pair of shrimp boats..
the Wampus and the Daguerro.. it's rough work but it pays well
and you get to eat a lot of shrimp! You have to get up at 0400 though...
