Glad that you asked! Rockport is a sleepy little city 25 miles north of Corpus Christi. On a peninsula, it is a fisherman’s paradise. Over a decade of more northerly winds, the water temperature has dropped enough to drive away some of the sport fish such as tarpon, but there are still a lot of fish to be caught. A very close friend spends 4 to 5 months a year here and we are staying just a few sites down from him and his wife. They took us for several tours here, one to Mustang Island, a barrier island protecting Corpus Christi Bay. To get there, we crossed one bridge that brought us up to Port Aransas, but to reach the island requires taking a ferry. Run by the state, these ferries are free and can handle VWs to semis. My dually has to take two spots. After a few mile drive we were on the beach, literally! The beaches here have a high clay content and pack down so well, they allow RVs to stay here for minimal amounts.
