Cheap flights to South Padre Island from £835

If you’re booking flights to South Padre Island in search of sun, then the best time to go is undoubtedly the warmer half of the year, between April and October. Spring Breakers flock to the area from February to April, so if you don’t want to be stuck doing tequila shots at Senior Frogs, plan your trip after Spring Break season.  Be careful if you’re planning your vacation toward the end of the hot season, though, because the month of September brings the most rainfall of any other month in the year. Wintertime stays cool at around 10 – 15 degrees, and since it’s not prime time to sunbathe, you’re likely to find deals on accommodations and cheap flights to South Padre during that time. The months between September and November call for the occasional hurricane, but most of them aren’t seriously damaging.

Nightlife: Aside from beaches, nightlife is one of the main reasons that college students book flights to South Padre each year. Spring break hails droves of young partiers from all over the country to saddle up and dance through the night. Everywhere you look at any time of the day, there’s a place to enjoy a beachside cocktail. Shoreline bars create the perfect setting for warm, sultry nights perfect for meeting other travellers, listening to live music and relaxing. No matter what kind of establishment you’re looking for, a collection of pubs, clubs, bars, lounges and saloons jams together near the water, creating limitless possibilities for each evening of your stay.  Beaches: If you were busy dancing the night away and are looking for a little refuge, head to the shore. Beautiful, white sand beaches are the perfect daytime escapes to either nap in the sun, work on your tan, dive into the waves, or play games on the sand. Even if you’re not a spring breaker in search of daytime recuperation, families book flights to South Padre solely to experience the fun and kid-friendly activities like windsurfing, swimming, and snorkelling. With 23 access points along the island and easy parking, the beach is a convenient place to unwind.  Museums: When drinking, dancing, and sunbathing have taken over your South Padre travel plans, sometimes it’s nice to do something different. If you’re in the mood to learn a little more about this tiny Texas hot-spot then head to the Port Isabel Historical Museum, set in an 1899 Victorian commercial building. The museum focuses on the history of the area, and the unique building once served as a supply depot for the Mexican-American War. Interactive exhibits display fascinating war artefacts, and toward the end of the tour, you’ll see the popular 1906 Victor Morales Fish Mural – a nod to the natural resources and economy of the area. If the kids are in tow, head to the Treasures of the Gulf Museum, where three Spanish shipwrecks from the 1550’s are highlighted and showcased through murals, artefacts, performances, and a fun discovery lab.
