South Padre KOA RV Resort and FishBones Pier and Grill is a unique environmental reclamation project.  Situated on the shore of Laguna Madre Bay, palm trees, flowering plants, breathtaking sunsets, bright blue tanks, 25-meter pool, and Texas hospitality greet guests.

Enter the South Padre Photo Contest and Win!Originally the property, which is located ¼ mile south of the Island's Queen Isabella Causeway, was a 14.57 acre property eyesore.  Over the years the area was filled with unauthorized above and below ground utility lines, two semi-abandoned 330,000 gallon water storage tanks (see above), a 50'x50' concrete cistern, and dredge (spoil) fill for the old Queen Isabella Causeway.

To reclaim the land, the visionary partners had what seemed at times a monumental task of coordination, permitting, analysis and ultimately removal. There were twenty-five overhead electrical poles and overhead lines to remove. Followed by hauling off tens of thousands of yards of bay bottom dredge, a mixture of wet clay and sand.  Finally, still remaining was the problem of two 330,000-gallon tanks, the cistern, and accompanying pipes, valves, and out buildings.

The tanks, cistern, and the facilities pump works were not removed but renovated for current use.  Tanks were redesigned to house contemporary and functional offices, condominiums, laundry, bathrooms, and recreation areas (see above).  A pristine 25-meter pool and hot tub are in the cistern and storage facilities are housed in the old pump works.  Added to this accomplishment is the 700' fishing pier located at the very end of the resort where FishBones Pier and Grill is located.

From environmental disaster to environmental success, DSP offers guests the latest accommodations and service in a beautiful surrounding.
