The magical metropolis of Corpus Christi is a coastal city located in the state of Texas. In 2000, the city’s population was recorded at 285,267 people, which made it the 8th largest city in Texas at the time. Even with such a large population, the city of Corpus Christi has been able to retain the natural beauty that Mother Nature has given it. The name Corpus Christi a Latin translation meaning "Body of Christ" was given to the settlement by Spanish seafarers to honor the holy Sacrament; however, thousands of tourists and businessmen who visit the City every month call the city “The Sparkling City by the Sea”, which has caught on.

The City of Corpus Christi is surrounded by the waters of Laguna Madre, the Gulf of Mexico and the bay of Corpus Christi, making it a virtual paradise for the fishing enthusiasts and tourists.  Numerous fishing supply retailers, watercraft retailers and bait merchant companies have set up their offices in the City Of Corpus Christi. Moreover, the placid waters filled with exotic marine life makes adventure activities like snorkeling and scuba diving extremely popular among travelers. The abundance of fish in the region attracts waterfowls and other birds by thousands, which has made hunting another popular activity in the Texas region. Coot, teals, ducks and geese are a few of the birds that are often hunted for sport. 

In addition, strong breezes from the Gulf of Mexico makes Corpus Christi a premier destination for wind sports such as wind surfing, kite boarding, parasailing and kite flying.
