South Padre Island
Field Trips

This 1,500-foot boardwalk crosses four acres of marshland, where bird watchers can spot many coastal and migratory birds and numerous others tempted by the berries on the fiddlewood bushes along the trail.

Sea Turtle Inc. houses sea turtles on site, which include loggerheads and Atlantic Greens. Educational presentations are offered both onsite and as outreach.

The Center mission is to educate the public about the birds of South Padre Island and its environs: the flora, the fauna and the natural environment of South Padre Island and the Laguna Madre coastal area.
