After getting settled at your accommodation of choice, you'll likely want to venture out and explore. If you're excited to scope out the beaches, spend a relaxing day by the water at Port Aransas Beach or Holiday Beach. Take advantage of the area's fishing and bird watching, and make time for local attractions such as Rockport Beach Park and Matagorda Island. For more things to see and do, consider visiting Copano Bay or Aransas National Wildlife Refuge.
