Summer is a busy time on South Padre Island.  Everything is in full swing catering to family vacationers getting away to the beach.  Yes it's warm but South Padre does not experience the scorching temperatures most other locations do.  The daily "Gulf Breezes" serves as our air conditioner.  When temperatures 30 miles from the island are over 100 degrees; South Padre Island's upper 80's seem like heaven.  Rarely do temperatures exceed 90 in the middle of summer.

Bring sunscreen! Even if you are accustomed to being outside regularly you will need sunscreen.  South Padre Island's extreme southern latitude means the sun is more intense and direct. You can burn very easily.
