Southern Living Shout-Out for Fall Vacation
1 of 4 Fall Getaways Spotlighted in November Issue
The popular magazine on many Southerners' coffee tables, Southern Living knows every city, town, and hamlet, in every season, across the South. So, when it selects four getaways as best in November, it speaks with authority. Lucky for us, it chose Port Aransas! And it gave a shout-out to Cinnamon Shore for the luxury accommodation category.
"From luxury suites at Cinnamon Shore to vacation rentals and condominiums with Gulf views, there are rooms for every type of traveler."
In Good Company
The other 3 towns selected are charmers Wilmington, N.C., Mount Pleasant, S.C., and Pensacola, Fla. All small, comfortable towns with a friendly vibe, like Port Aransas.
Why Port Aransas?
The magazine touts balmy November weather in the range of 60 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and an abundance of outdoor activities in the island town. it's also impressed with the town's moniker "The Fishing Capital of Texas" and water sports such as kayaking.
On a migratory path known as the Central Flyway, Port Aransas attracts nature lovers every in cooler months as birds fly South, especially in February fort the Whooping Crane festival, set for Feb. 19-22, 2026.
With attractions such as the Dune Chapel and downtown shopping scene, but the writer must not have stopped by The Boutiques at Cinnamon Shore.
But it the quiet season always comes back to less crowded beaches.
"When the summer crowds go home and the gulls reclaim the shoreline, Port Aransas gets ready for its best season," writes Gabi De la Rosa.
