“What is today known as the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge first emerged 120,000 years ago during the Pleistocene era when a barrier island was born. Great continental glaciers retreated and their melted ice filled the sea. A rising sea piled up ridge after ridge of sand along today’s Texas Gulf Coast, creating a vast island of which Aransas is a remnant. Time brought many changes to the land. River sediments filled barrier lagoons, joining the island to the mainland. Grasses and trees invaded sandy ridges creating a home for Ice Age mammals such as lion, camel, bison, bear, mammoth and mastodon. The Pleistocene era was lost to geological history; behind it was left the land and a few mementos of that era, including fossilized teeth and alligators.”

“I recommend anything with their fajitas. They are SO GOOD. Another busy place, so go early, or relax and be prepared for a little wait on their shaded benches outside. Open for lunch or dinner.”

“Sitting outside on the balcony offers the best view of the marina. Seafood is absolutely wonderful. Try the seafood gumbo...best around.”
