South Padre Island Winter Texan Guide


Winter Texan Guide to South Padre Island


Our winter visitors come to South Padre Island every year in order to avoid winter weather. South Padre Island has many activities and events that are geared specifically for the enjoyment of our Winter Texans. Let's face it - it's just plain warmer here in South Texas than the northern latitudes of North America and Canada. This is why thousands of visitors come to the shores of the Gulf Coast each year to escape the chilling winter weather back home. Winter temperatures here in January averages a high of 67°F with a low of 52°F, most days are sunny and warm. The beaches on South Padre Island are perfect for strolling and collecting shells, fishing, or simply setting up a chair and umbrella and watching the waves roll in. Winter accomodations are easy to come by with most rental options offering discounted rates for longer stays, and many hotels, condominiums, and beach houses with long term rental availability of 3 months or more. RV Parks in the area are teeming with winter visitors from October through the end of February.

It's easy to see that just like birds flying south for the winter, residents of northern states with colder climates desire to escape the cold weather for a lifestyle of leisure, fun, adventure, and good health. 

Accommodations in every price bracket are avaialble enabling our winter residents to live the Winter Texan dream.  Whether in a hotel, beach house, RV Park, or condo, Winter Texans enjoy the warm and mild winters of South Texas here in South Padre Island.
