Non-storm King Tide erosion on South Padre Island, about mile 13.5 beyond the end of pavement. The beaches most of us visit have been been nourished with sand from ship channels or offshore sources pumped onto the beach during the non-tourist season. The reason? Without a beach, condos, beach hotels, and resorts rentals of all kinds would be worthless. This beach has never been nourished and as a consequences has nearly been eroded away.
