Be aware of the tides and high tide line when choosing a beach campsite. Strong winds or storms can significantly elevate tides and create hazardous conditions along the Gulf Coast.
We went there while visiting Corpus Christi. North Beach (also known as Rincon Point or Corpus Christi Beach) is one of the most populated beaches. The calming breeze, blue waves, unruffled sand, and flying seagulls make the 1.5-mile-long 10-foot-wide concrete beach walk mesmerizing. USS Lexington Museum is just beside the North Beach. There are a variety of restaurants, bars, and shops near the beach. There is availability of parking lots, restrooms, and outdoor showers. It's a perfect place for strolling, jogging, or walking a dog. You can also go fishing, cycling, and skating in the beach area.
The cons are:
1. there is no shade so bring an umbrella or tent and
2. Plenty of jellyfish on the beach, so be careful while walking on the sandy beach.
Highly recommend it if you are visiting Corpus Christi.
Very nice lots of parking even with the eclipse. Dont forget your bug repellent and use the restroom before you get here. The portacans smell terrible I didn't go in them but just walking past them... overall still great.
We love this. North Beach is clean, perfect to sit, relax, and take some cool refreshments 🏖

May 2021 was the first time we visited Carpus Christy Beach we visited and we enjoyed and though why we missed to see this place in our last 2 decades in Texas.
Very Clean beach and to see surroundings with many attractions, specially my favorite to see see side in different times of the day and evening. USS Lexington Museums was the main and special attraction for me other than the see side.
