Visiting Rockport

This Gulf Coast haven is a birder’s paradise, and as you awaken from a restful night in Rockport hotels, you may hear the chatter of jays and warblers or the patter of a woodpecker working for his breakfast. But the true treasure lies north, with sightings of the rare and endangered whooping crane at Aransas National Wildlife Refuge. If, instead, it is the waves you hear calling your name, make your way to Rockport Beach and recline with unbeatable gulf views.

At the Texas Maritime Museum, imagine yourself an intrepid explorer aboard a riverboat in the 1700s, charting new waters for trade and transport. Or delve into the history of fishing on the Gulf Coast, from the rowboats and push poles of the early 1900s to the industry of today.

If all this talk of fish is making you eager for dinner, cruise down Austin Street in one of Travelocity’s Rockport rental cars and choose your catch of the day. Later, settle in with a glass of pinot at one of the wine bars for an evening of quiet conversation. Looking for revelry that’s just a little bit more rowdy? Hotels near San Antonio are just 150 miles north, and you’ll find plenty of live music and even livelier crowds along the Riverwalk.
