Treasure Island is one of Port Aransas's most spirited outdoor hangouts — a sprawling open-air complex where four bars share one sun-soaked address. Pull up a spot, order something cold, and let Mario Flores set the mood with his signature blend of Latino country, a sound that feels right at home with a Gulf breeze at your back and the weekend stretching out ahead of you.
After the music fades and the last round is poured, Beached Inn is just a short wander back through Cinnamon Shore — where the porch light is on, the salt air greets you at the door, and the only thing left to do is kick off your sandy shoes and settle in.
