About Corpus Christi Beach
Corpus Christi, the 'Sparkling City by the Sea,' is the hub of the Texas Coastal Bend, wrapped around a large bay with steady breezes that make it a windsurfing and kiteboarding favorite. Its bayfront and nearby barrier-island Gulf beaches offer warm water, fishing, and a lively waterfront city. The Gulf is bath-warm in summer (mid-80s°F) and mild in winter, warmer the farther south you go. Rip currents are the main hazard here, so check the safety flag and rip-current risk above, follow posted flags, and swim near a lifeguard.
