Rockport

There’s a reason the lovely city of Rockport, Texas, is one of the nation’s best places to retire – there are several, in fact! Not only is Rockport ranked in the 100 Best Small Art Towns in America, it’s also home to gorgeous beaches and a wide variety of natural attractions.

With everything from scenic hiking trails to kid-friendly attractions, Rockport is a wonderful place to visit. Head to the wide, pristine beach for a day of fun in the sun and splashing around in the warm, shallow Gulf waters. The nature-lover in your group will love visiting the local parks and sanctuaries, while history buffs won’t get enough of the city's fascinating museums, which include the Texas Maritime Museum. Explore Fulton Mansion, built in 1877, or indulge your artsy side with a visit to Rockport Center of the Arts, where you’ll find a gallery’s worth of beautiful exhibits by local artists.
