Route Description

Experience the Corpus Christi Skyline from a different view, by lighted kayak!

Nestled along the picturesque waters of the Corpus Christi Bay, the Corpus Christi Marina serves as a vibrant hub for locals and visitors alike. This bustling marina is not just a gateway to the Gulf of Mexico but also a focal point for recreational activities, dining, and unforgettable experiences on the water. Whether you're strolling along the docks, admiring the yachts, or enjoying a bite to eat, the marina offers a lively and scenic setting for everyone.

One of the most iconic spots along the marina is the Selena Memorial, located on the seawall. This touching tribute to the Queen of Tejano music, Selena Quintanilla, attracts fans from all over the world. The bronze statue, known as "Mirador de la Flor," was unveiled in 1997 and commemorates Selena's enduring legacy. Visitors can pay their respects, take photos, and reflect on her profound impact on the music industry and the Corpus Christi community.

For those looking to dine with a view, the Corpus Christi Marina offers a variety of excellent eateries. Harrison's Landing, a popular waterfront restaurant, serves up delicious seafood, burgers, and refreshing drinks, all while offering stunning views of the bay. Another great option is Joe’s Crab Shack, where you can enjoy a casual atmosphere with an extensive seafood menu. For those seeking something more upscale, Water Street Oyster Bar is just a short walk away, offering fresh oysters and gourmet dishes that are sure to impress.

After a satisfying meal, the adventure truly begins with GlowRow's nighttime kayaking tours. Launching directly from the marina, GlowRow offers a one-of-a-kind experience that lets you explore the bay under the stars. Equipped with the new GlowRow 3.0 lighting system, these tours illuminate the clear waters of the bay, providing a mesmerizing view of the marine life below. The glow paddles add to the spectacle, lighting up with each stroke and making the entire kayak appear as though it's gliding on a sea of stars.

On a rare occasion a dolphin may even come and visit. Are you ready?
