5 Main Beach Getaways in Texas

Are you a Black Southern Belle looking for a beautiful beach getaway? Add Texas to that list of beach getaways and be pleasantly surprised this summer. Find tons of new scenery on the coast of Texas that is fun and a little closer to home.

For years Texas has been branded by the infamous Cowboy boots and hats. Before I moved to Texas, I thought everyone rode horses and traveled by dirt road. This misconception hides the beautiful beaches hiding in the Lone Star state. Texas has over 600 miles of the Gulf of Mexico riddled with tourist towns and adventures. Check out the 5 Main Beach Getaways in Texas and get ready for some more BSB travel.

Corpus Christi/Aransas Bay

Corpus Christi and the Aransas Bay area are just a ferry ride away from each other. In this small and energetic city you will always find something to do and new adventures to explore. The Corpus Christi/Aransas Bay area includes lots of beautiful beach scenery, fresh air, tourist shopping, and amazing food. It can be the perfect beach getaway for a couple or the whole family.
