There Is Not A Bad Time To Visit South Padre Island
When the word "Spring" and South Padre Island is used in the same sentence one pictures the thousands of college students partying on the beach and nightclubs, traffic jams and such.  This perhaps is true for what is termed "Texas Week" when local universities break for the spring holidays.  However, local residents will tell you that the months of March, April and May (Fall season as well) are the prime times for the Island.  You will find the beaches without crowds, merchants offer their best prices and everything is in full operation.

Plan a trip to South Padre Island in the spring... you will return year after year.
