Rockport, Texas
A charming coastal town...
...of unique beauty nestled on a peninsula of wind swept oaks. Commercial oyster and shrimp boats still venture from its harbors and bays, along with recreational and sport fishing rigs. The surrounding wetlands and estuaries are the winter home to migratory birds, including the endangered whooping crane. The natural beauty has drawn many artists to settle here. Rockport is a favorite vacation destination with its blue wave beach and a growing retirement community.
Rockport is only a three-hour drive from Austin, San Antonio, and Houston, making it the perfect weekend getaway. Coastal Living Magazine recently named Rockport one of the "top ten Coastal Art Colonies" in the country, and has been named "one of the top 100 small art towns in America" by author John Villani.
