Easter is not generally considered a traveling holiday as for most of us it doesn’t involve an extra paid day off, but in 2025 the holiday falls on April 20th which is practically summer in Port Aransas, so why not do something different this year? The beaches are waiting, the crowds haven’t realized that April is the perfect time to work on your tan, and every activity you can do at home for Easter can be done in our PortAransas-Texas.com holiday hideaways! This guide to celebrating Easter 2025 in Port Aransas is filled with many more reasons to make your way to Texas for a Port Aransas Easter vacation that will never be forgotten.
Road Trip to the Easter Bunny
Port Aransas is a small town without its own mall, but if you want to see the Easter Bunny, you can drive to La Palmera Mall in Corpus Christi, located at 5488 S Padre Island Boulevard, for a chance to meet up with the bunny in person! You know the drill: wait in line, pay for the package, and get all teary eyed as your toddler beams excitedly (or laugh to yourself when you get the crying pictures!) it is the same as in your own hometown, but it’s possible you may enjoy it more simply because you are in a new mall with new shops to explore! The pictures you purchase will serve as a souvenir of your holiday in Texas, bringing back memories of that vacation of sunshine and happiness.
The Beach Awaits This Port Aransas Easter
The sunrise church service is a much beloved tradition for this holiday, and yes, we are a friendly bunch here, and churches of all denominations will welcome you with open arms. But for those who may feel a little shy, a sunrise walk along shore’s edge will touch places deep within your soul, making you believe in all things big and small and making you wonder if this should be your new holiday tradition. And as that midnight sky turns blue and the golden sun cuts through the dawn chill, you can always choose to go back to your Port A retreat and catch a few more hours of sleep, or you can change into something cute and comfy and prepare to take part in another holiday tradition, the Easter feast, which we will cover in more detail below! And because temperatures are bumping 80 degrees, you can come back later to enjoy a day of surf, sun, and sand, while working on a tan that will make your friends back home jealous.
Easter Brunch at Tortuga’s Saltwater Grill, 429 N Alister Street
Although our fully equipped kitchens make it easy to create your own Easter feast, not all travelers want to cook during vacation time, and we honestly can’t blame you if you don’t. Fortunately, there are options that offer more than the ham sandwiches you may have been considering for a day on the beach. Tortuga’s Saltwater Grill is known for offering the freshest seafood in the state, but it is also famed for its special events lineup. Celebrating everything from Valentine’s Day to New Year’s Eve, there is always a special meal waiting to be devoured and Easter is no exception. Serving all the traditional dishes of the holiday and including some extra spring inspired meals as well, families and friends gather here happily, celebrating the holiday and these magical moments with those wonderful humans that are loved more than any others.
