Port AransasTexas📍

Port A is a hidden gem along the Texas coast!

My best friends and I just took a road trip to visit this weekend!

These were some of the best spots to visit!

📍1) Port A Beer Hut- such a cute swing bar with great drinks! Super chill vibe

📍2) Moby Dicks Seafood Restaurant- Gives off Joes Crab-shack vibes! Great food but you need to get there early to avoid a long wait. Super cute gift shop

📍3) Port A Pizzaeria- Buffet or take out, there is something here for everyone, plus they have bomb 💣 pasta salad

📍4) San Juans- cute Mexican restaurant that had amazing chips and a spicy margarita

📍5) Winton’s Island Candy- an old timey candy store with all kinda of candy, and chocolate. Also lots of fun antique items to look at

📍 6) Glow Row- night time kayaking adventure! About an hour and a half of night rowing. You get to see all sorts of cool sea life 🐠🐟

📍 7) Dancing Dunes- This quiet little Air B&B was perfect for our 5 person trip! The host was so friendly and we had such an amazing time, plus there were dogs on the property so that made it even better!
