Cast a line into Matagorda Bay where trophy redfish and speckled trout make fishing dreams come true. The pristine beaches stretch for miles, with 23 accessible by car and another 35 reachable only by boat. Watch for endangered whooping cranes and sea turtles along the unspoiled shores of Matagorda Island State Park. The Colorado River meets the Gulf at Matagorda Bay Nature Park, creating a paradise for birdwatchers and nature photographers. This tiny coastal community of just over 300 souls thrives on its fishing heritage. Arrive early at the public pier where locals share tips about the day's catch with surprising generosity. Don't miss sunset at the jetty where dolphins often appear, performing their own farewell to another perfect Gulf Coast day.
