Padre Island National Seashore, 2005, mile 25 beyond the four-wheel drive only sign at the Big Dune. This is a favorite campsite for folks that can trek this far down a four-wheel drive only beach. The big dune here sticks up like a volcano of sand, twice as high as all the other dunes within miles and miles. The high tide line is easy to see with the brown seaweed way down the beach towards the water. The only time the sand above the high tide line is covered is is during storms.
