Night Walks

A late night stroll along the waters edge can be both an adventure and a relaxing way to end the day. Grab a flashlight and the kids and go on a ghost crab hunt. Maybe you will even see Bioluminescence in the water. When Bioluminescence is exposed to oxygen it will emit light causing the waves to look like they are glowing a neon blue or green color. Check out the Video below to see just how it work!

Watch Dolphin Plays

Surfside has several pods of dolphins that can often be seen frolicking in the surf. They can often be seen about 50 to 60 yards offshore.

Crabbing

Crabbing enthralls young children and is fun for adults. Dangle a baited bit of string into the water and pull up hungry, scrambling crabs.

Flying Kites

The Beach is PERFECT for Kite Flying. Most places on the island carry a small selection of kites or pick one up before you head down.

Surfing

Surfside Beach produces some of the best, most consistent surf on the upper Texas coast. It works on small swells and holds double overhead and better. Two factors are responsible for this fact: deep water and long jetties.

Group Yoga - Sundays, 9:00 am

Studies show that doing yoga on a sandy beach strengthens more of the muscles in your feet, knees, legs, hips, core and shoulders – which are crucial to good posture – than you would normally in a yoga studio. Shifting sand forces the body to make small adjustments in order to maintain the posture.
