🌊🏖️ Beach Blow-out

Join us for a coastal getaway where good food, great company, and ocean vibes come together. We’ll be camping right on the beach, spending our days relaxing by the waves and our evenings gathered around crackling bonfires under the stars.
The highlight of Saturday night will be a classic shrimp boil—fresh shrimp, bold seasonings, and shared tables that make for easy conversation and new connections. Bring your camping gear, a kite, your favorite drinks, and anything you’d like to throw on the fire. Whether you’re here to unwind, meet new people, or just enjoy the simple joy of beach life, this meetup is all about slowing down and savoring the moment.
Come for the shrimp, stay for the sunset, and leave with great memories.

Entry fee to Padre Island National Seashore is $25 or $70 for a year long pass. Once you get to the Malaquite Visitor Center, you'll most likely lose cell reception; from there continue down until you get to the turn off for the beach, from there we'll be setup 1-3 miles down the beach, look for a bright orange flag flying from a flag pole attached to a dark gray mini-van's trailer hitch.

If you would, please chip in $5 to offset the costs of the 🦐shrimp boil. You can Venmo me (@chadwestes 210-870-4133) or bring a fiver with you to the beach. This will be the only prepared meal we're doing as a group. You're on your own for the rest of the weekend.

There are no facilities on the beach, so plan accordingly. There are port-a-potties at the beach let-in and full facilities back at the visitor center.

If you bring your furry friends with you, you're responsible for them.
