An eclectic cocktail of the sleekly modern skyscapers and the great outdoors, all under an endless Texas sky, Corpus Christi presents many exciting opportunities for Marriott hotel guests. Shop, surf, stroll the beach or downtown; sunny summers and mild winters make Corpus Christi an ideal destination year-round.
While staying at our centrally located Corpus Christi accommodation options, guests can travel back in time by visiting historic landmarks and museums. Explore long, narrow corridors and large compartments at the USS Lexington, a World War II naval aircraft carrier, or embrace the city’s aquatic culture at the Texas State Aquarium, both within easy driving distance of our hotels.
Take a stroll along the waterfront and stop to sample an area speciality: seafood. If shellfish isn’t your favourite fare, hit up one of Corpus Christi’s restaurants for Texas classics like barbeque and Tex-Mex. Fast-food fans should try locally headquartered Whataburger, too.
If you prefer to get away from it all for an afternoon (or an entire day), try relaxing and bird watching at nearby Padre Island National Seashore Park. This immense park is home to over 400 species of birds and the endangered Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle.
