TPW TV MUSTANG ISLAND: A mid coast getaway where the 
family can relax… on Passport to Texas

This is Passport to Texas (week of Feb 11)

Are you thinking about a coastal getaway with the family 
this summer, but wondering where to go? The Texas 
Parks and Wildlife Television PBS series takes you to an 
island retreat that offers recreation and relaxation for the 
whole family. Producer Abe Moore.

57—[:02 ocean ambience] As a producer and a dad, I’m always 
looking for stories or places where it’s kid friendly, or 
something great for the family. And Mustang island, it’s just a 
great place for kids, and then as a parent, you can kind of just 
hang out. People, when they come out to the island, they’re 
looking for relaxation. So, the minute they get here and get 
set up, that’s all they’re looking to do—just sit back, relax 
and take it at their own pace. It’s also a great place for 
fishing, and beach combing and birding. When I was out there 
filming, there was a lot of kite surfing going on, so that was 
really cool. What’s really nice about it, it’s right there in the 
central part of the coast. In Texas, I don’t think a lot of people 
realize within hours you can be here. And when you sit out 
in this breeze coming off the water, it’s just great. So that’s 
story’s going to be on Texas Parks and Wildlife television in the 
fourth week of June. Enjoy! [:02 ocean ambience fades]
