Editor's Notes
Malaquite Beach is the car-free stretch of Padre Island National Seashore by the visitor center: about 4.5 miles of open Gulf beach backed by dunes. There are restrooms, cold showers and shaded picnic areas, but no lifeguards anywhere in the park, so swim with care. A national park entrance fee applies.
