Top Beaches in Port Aransas, Texas
Located on the southern end of Mustang Island within Nueces County on the Gulf Coast of Texas, Port Aransas Beach is a six-mile-long and wide beige sand beach. The beach is positioned on a natural barrier island along the Texas coastline. Port Aransas Beach has a beautiful backdrop of many oceanfront buildings, including houses, shops, restaurants, and nearby condominiums, which together provide Instagram-worthy views of the Gulf of Mexico, the Lydia Ann Ship Channel, and the Corpus Christi Ship Channel. The beach has a long jetty built with many large boulders and rocks to form a protective barrier for Port Aransas against strong waves and tidal currents to control erosion.
