South Padre Closed to Visitors At This Time

Due to damage from Hurricane Dolly, South Padre Island is presently closed to non-residents and those without a business on the island. The South Padre Island CVB has posted a note on its website updating the present conditions on the island. As of today (Saturday), the island has no electricity, and there is a curfew in place as well. Cars are stopped at the causeway, and visitors are not being admitted onto the island until the condition improves. Hopefully electricity will be restored later this week, and repairs can move along quickly.

We’ll keep you posted as specific reopening dates are announced. We all look forward to South Padre Island returning to the Texas travel scene as a great year-around destination!
