Stay at the Park. Fish the Gulf.
Austin's Landing RV Park puts you one block from Surfside Beach and minutes from Freeport Harbor — the launching point for some of the best offshore and inshore fishing on the Texas Gulf Coast.
Freeport Is a Serious Fishing Destination
Freeport Harbor is one of the most active fishing ports on the Texas coast. Offshore charter boats run daily to the snapper banks, rigs, and blue water. Inshore guides work the bays, jetties, and surf for redfish, trout, and flounder. And when you're done for the day, your RV is five minutes away.
Every Kind of Fishing, Right Here
Offshore Charters
Freeport Harbor runs offshore trips to the snapper banks, oil rigs, and blue water. Red snapper, king mackerel, mahi-mahi, and tuna are all in season at different times of year. Most charter boats depart from Freeport Marina, 5 minutes from the park.
Inshore Bay Fishing
The bays and estuaries around Freeport are loaded with redfish, speckled trout, and flounder. Guided inshore trips run year-round. The Intracoastal Waterway and East Matagorda Bay are both within easy reach.
Surf & Jetty Fishing
Walk from the park to Surfside Beach and fish the surf for whiting, pompano, and redfish. The Quintana Jetties — 10 minutes away — are legendary for speckled trout and sheepshead.
Pier Fishing
Quintana Beach County Park has a fishing pier open to the public. No boat required — just bring your rod, bait, and a cooler. Great for families and casual anglers.
