In light of the government shutdown, we want to assure locals and visitors that Padre Island National Seashore remains open to the public. Amenities, including shower and restrooms are also open and available, with the exception of the Malaquite Visitor Info Center. For more information, please contact the park directly.
#CCME is a rallying cry to come together and activate community pride by showing the world how WE coast. Let us demonstrate all the ways to see and explore our city of Corpus Christi to encourage tourism and show off our incredible Gulf Coast Capital experiences.
