Most of us have built sandcastles on the beach before. You know… the kind that involves a plastic shovel and a bucket that is shaped like a castle tower when flipped upside-down.
What if you would like to create something better than that… something that could be described as sand art? Well, you can do it.
Andy Hancock has been offering sandcastle lessons in South Padre for years.
Without a doubt, South Padre Island Texas is one of our FAVORITE vacation destinations!
My family and I discovered this little tropical paradise a couple of summers ago. We have been hooked ever since!
Some of our favorite things to do in South Padre Island are the beaches, a visit to Schlitterbahn, and fishing.
If you’re wondering where South Padre Island is, follow the Texas coastline towards Mexico. It is a couple of miles off the coast just about on the border with Mexico. A bridge connects South Padre Island to Port Isabel on the mainland.
During a recent trip to South Padre Island, we decided to take sandcastle lessons, and boy, was that fun!
We saw the sandcastle lessons advertised on the Island’s web site before we booked our break.
We rang Andy Hancock and his competition. Andy sounded very enthusiastic on the phone and we decided go with Andy to have sandcastle lessons with the children, as it looked like real fun.
