Each February, dates to be announcedPort Aransas and the coastal bend, Port Aransas
The organizer has not published this year's dates yet. Check availability for the nights you have in mind, and we will hold the room.
The Central Flyway passes our own shoreline too. Walk the dock at first light before you drive out.
We are at 4226 Laguna Shores Road, at the end of a quiet coastal road in the Flour Bluff area. That puts you about 40 minutes and beyond from Port Aransas and the coastal bend, Port Aransas, with the Laguna Madre at the back door when the day is done.
