Go to Port Aransas. Make sure you get a 6$ sticker to put on your windshield so you can park your car anywhere, aanytime on the beach. Look for the little trailer at the entrance of the beach to buy them. I stayed at the plantation Inn. Great deal. Good luck.

I enjoyed Padre Island National Seashore. It is a government owned beach, but it has alot of activities.

Ray the waters of the island are in general calm and very nice for swimming.Stay on the gulf side . The beach itself was voted the 3rd best in the states by the travel channel. here a very useful site.
