There is a specific kind of magic that happens in Port Aransas as the clock strikes 6:00 PM. The Texas heat mellows into a salty breeze, the sky begins its transformation into a canvas of orange and pink hues, and everyone and everything starts to slow down. In Port A, “Sunset & Sip” isn’t just an activity, it’s a way of life.
Top Spots to Toast the Setting Sun
Grumbles Seafood Co.
Grab a Grum Punch or a Piña Colada and enjoy a side of a gorgeous Port Aransas sunset free of charge. Grumbles offers a large outdoor patio overlooking the ship channel. It’s the perfect place to grab a local craft beer or cocktail, snack on fresh seafood, and spot dolphins swimming in the bay.
