I live on Padre Island which is connected to Corpus Christi by a 5 mile long bridge. It is a wonderful place to live because there are many different things to do. You have the what a normal town/city would have plus the beach and ski canals. On the weekends, usually you will be in some type of body of water. Wakeboarding and surfing were very popular among my friends and I.
