Highlights

We have been in business for 40 years providing Family Fun on South Padre Island. We are the only company to banana boat Oceanside and Bayside (weather permitting). Your USCG licensed Captain and Crew are always there to assure a fun, safe ride. Banana Boating is a fun way to enjoy the views and experience seeing dolphins and all sorts of sea life. This activity is fun for the whole family. YES, you will get wet and probably fall off a couple time, it's just part of the ride. What a great way to cool off after some time in the sun.

About South Padre Island

South Padre Island is a barrier island at the southern tip of Texas, with wide Gulf beaches, shallow lagoons, dolphins and sea turtles.

South Padre Island is a narrow barrier island at the southern tip of Texas, a short distance from the Mexican border, with the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the shallow Laguna Madre on the other. A causeway crosses the lagoon from Port Isabel, a small fishing town with a lighthouse of the 1850s that can be climbed, and the beach runs for miles of pale sand.
