Texas Beach Camping - Padre Island National Seashore ( PINS )

We took off on an impromptu trip to PINS to kick off our camping season this year. No signal, no alerts,. Just us and 60 miles of beach, unlimited wildlife and lots of fun.

    Going again this weekend and I can’t wait. PINS nurtures the soul. I’ve traveled to almost every continent on the planet and there is no other place like it. No cell reception, no 90degree angles, very few people, and nature everywhere. ❤️

    I had to stop during your intro and leave a comment, I can already tell I'm going to like this video because camping out at the is one of my favorite things to do, many years ago when I was ín college me and my girlfriend at the time used to drive to the beach late on a Friday or Saturday night and sleep in the back of my s-10 Chevy Blazer so we could be the first ones on the beach the next day! And the sunrise was always incredible! 😱
