Take a look at some fantastic date night hotspots in South Padre Island:
Visit Sea Turtle, Inc
Start your date night early so you can make a trip over to Sea Turtle, Inc. This local organization is known for rehabilitating wild sea turtles who have washed ashore on South Padre Island. Take your loved one to see these incredibly cute animals in person. The outdoor tanks let you peer in and see them swimming around. A visit to Sea Turtle, Inc is a wonderful and budget-friendly idea to start off any good date night.
Walk the Laguna Madre Nature Trail
If your loved one is an animal lover then you also need to take a romantic stroll over at Laguna Madre Nature Trail. This boardwalk is laid out over four acres of coastal land where you can see various coastal birds. Watch as they prepare for the sunset or feed on the luscious berries found in the fiddlewood bushes. South Padre Island is home to hundreds of migratory birds so there will typically always be something on display!
Take a Sunset Walk on the Beach
If your loved one is not quite the animal lover then a romantic walk on the beach is the perfect date night activity. South Padre Island is home to dozens of pristine beaches that are perfect for a romantic evening. The county beaches are always patrolled and kept clean. The South Padre Bayside Beach is a local favorite for romantic sunset walks along the beach. Bring a blanket and layout on the sand as the sun slowly sets in the background.
