Corpus Christi Bayfront & Seawall
Corpus Christi Bayfront
A seawall promenade and marina along the bay, where a T-shaped jetty, waterfront parks and the city skyline form the best walking route downtown.
The seawall, completed in 1941, was designed with input from Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor of Mount Rushmore. Stepped terraces run about 3 km along Shoreline Boulevard, making it a popular spot for running, cycling and watching the sunrise. In the middle, a T-shaped jetty marina offers boat tours and fishing. Along the route are the Selena memorial, McGee Beach and a small sculpture park, and the north end leads to the Art Museum of South Texas. Four-person pedal bikes can be rented to ride along the shore. The whole route is free.
