Corpus Christi has all the main ingredients for an ideal weekend break: the sun, the sea, the sights, plus exhilarating and engaging activities the whole family can enjoy. Spend the day on the beach soaking up the sun or windsurfing, the breezy city's favourite pastime. Visit the massive Texas State Aquarium with its new Dolphin Bay, a protected habitat for dolphins unable to survive in open water. Take a tour of the USS Lexington, one of the most famous aircraft carriers in US naval history. Stroll through fabulous flora and fauna at the Botanical Gardens. At the Museum of Science and History, have a look at the recreated Pinta and Santa Maria, two of the ships Columbus used to sail to the New World. At night, enjoy a succulent seafood dinner at any number of fine restaurants, then head to the historic Harbor Playhouse for delightfully original community theatre and a true taste of what Corpus Christi is all about.
