While you won’t want to leave Cinnamon Shore, it’s surrounded by the abundant beauty and offerings of Mustang Island – a virtually undiscovered Gulf Coast jewel located just 30 minutes from Corpus Christi, and only 40 minutes from its international airport.

The “best-kept secret in Texas” is an unspoiled paradise for beachcombers, nature lovers and sports enthusiasts alike, offering endless expanses of pristine shoreline, majestic dunes cresting up to 30 feet, world-class golf and fishing, and one of the country’s best bird-watching locations. With roughly half the island dedicated to a state park and wetland sanctuaries, plus strict environmental laws, it will remain so.

At the northern tip of Mustang Island, just minutes from Cinnamon Shore, lies Port Aransas, a historic fishing town that predates the Civil War – and the island’s hub for family fun and entertainment. “Port A” continues to lure anglers as it has for over a century, as well as others who know its many coastal pleasures. Here, you’ll find first-class marina facilities, superb restaurants, charming boutiques and shops, art galleries, year-round community theater, a host of recreational activities, and even operating trolley cars. Just across the bar are all the cosmopolitan offerings of Corpus Christi, quickly accessible by highway or free ferry service.
