Situated almost completely along the coastline, Texas boasts some of the most beautiful beaches of the world. You can take your pick between the wonderful island of Gavelston and the spectacular Corpus Christi. If strolling at the beach or a quick swim in the sea makes you hungry, just cross over to Port Aransas on Mustang Island for some delicious, authentic seafood. If adventure sports excite you more than shrimp, you can go para-sailing and dolphin cruising. If they feel too wild, you can always enjoy a round of golf in any of the numerous courses throughout the country.

If you are a self-proclaimed ornithologist, Texas is just the place for you. Home to more or less 625 species of birds, the country is a haven or bird-watchers. Or, in case dead but timeless structures captivate you more than living birds, you can visit the museums, some of the biggest and best in the world.

Try visiting Texas during the Scarborough and Texas Renaissance Festivals. They are two of the world’s most gala festivals and you will get glimpse of their vibrant and colorful culture.
