What a better way to cool off in the Texas heat than to swim in "The Big Texan"? We have the worlds largest fiber glass pool! Relax at the pool and enjoy the scenery of the gulf! At the campground, you can relax without waves, fish or other creatures to bother you. Our saltwater pool is temperature-controlled — hot in the winter and cool in the summer — allowing you to enjoy it year-round.
If you are looking for a new fun way to enjoy the bay, try one of our aqua cycles for a new kind of adventure! This gigantic, water-based tricycle can take two people on a unique adventure through the water. The Aqua Cycle is a great activity for adults, kids and teens. Like a real bike, they are easy to operate with pedals and steer with the handlebars.
We have several ways to cool off at our campground! The pool, the bay, and now a brand new splash pad!
When you are ready for an adventure, rent one of our kayaks or Corcls and enjoy the gulf or watch some dolphins. We currently offer single and double kayaks, so whether you want to traverse the water alone or do it with a friend, you can. Your kids can also try a Corcl, a small, rounded boat you use with an oar. It's easy to paddle and a great way to host races or lay back and lounge on the water!
Try something new with a paddleboard rental! Stand on top of a flat board and use a paddle to glide across the water, taking in the gorgeous views while getting a workout. Whether you want to float around the water or try fishing from one, there are plenty of ways to enjoy your paddleboard rental.

Our Bay is famous for fishing. You can catch Flounder using a small hook and bait shrimp. They are in very shallow water, so casting from the shore is best. Live shrimp is best.
Another favorite is redfish, best to catch in shallow waters with live mullet. The live bait will do all the work for you on a number 3 hook.
Horseshoes is an excellent game to play with family and friends. Each player should stand on opposite sides, toss their horseshoes to the other pit, and count points based on how close they are to the stake. If you would prefer, you can have fun throwing them back and forth — no scorekeeping needed.
