Flowering railroad vine and morning clouds present a delightful display along sand dunes near Beach Access No. 3 on South Padre Island.

Visitors can reach the beach from multiple access points along State Park Road 100, a nearly 14- mile strip that passes through the town and provides long stretches of sand dunes with glimpses of the Gulf of Mexico. For more information, visit sopadre.com.
