Top Spots Near Port Aransas to End Your Day

Watching the sun sink below the horizon is the perfect way to end your day. This relaxing activity gives you a chance to slow down and unwind after a day of fun. There are several places known for their phenomenal sunset view, including these five.

1. The Horace Caldwell Pier extends 1,200 feet into the Gulf, providing visitors with a dramatic vantage over the water. Because this is a top spot, we recommend getting there early to secure a good spot along the Port Aransas pier.
2. If you’re spending a day at Mustang Island State Park, go later in the day so you can stay for the sunset. The park features a number of undeveloped beaches with unobstructed panoramic horizon views.
3. Roberts Point Park is a lively waterfront park found on a peninsula that juts into the Corpus Christi Ship Channel. Pack a picnic dinner or go fishing from the pier as you watch the sun set.
4. Book your spot on a sunset cruise. There are several local charters that provide you with an unforgettable experience, including Neptune Charters, Salt Devil Cruises, and Scarlet Lady.
5. Get away from the crowds and visit Lighthouse Lakes Park. The peaceful spot is located by coastal marshes and lakes, and is a great option for a twilight kayaking adventure.
