Whether you are already ensconced in your forever home that you spent many days and weeks searching for with your favorite realtor from Franke Realty or you are currently in the hunt for your new space right now, the final holiday of the summer is just around the corner and you may be wondering what you can do in your new hometown of South Padre Island. We are a full-service company, working hard to help make your dream home come true while also giving you ideas on why the neighborhood you are searching in is perfect for you and your family and how you can play and live every day of the year, including the upcoming Labor Day weekend! This guide to the fun you can have on the day devoted to all Americans who have worked so hard and deserve a little extra downtime will help make Labor Day in your new South Padre Island Home one you will never forget!
Labor Day In Your New South Padre Island Home
Your new South Padre Island has a beautiful kitchen that works perfectly well, but on this day dedicated to not working, we suggest keeping the stove off and making your way to Café on the Beach, 3616 Gulf Boulevard for a hearty breakfast prepared by someone else and incredible views of the water! Offering all your favorite breakfasts and a covered patio that is destined to be crowded (wake up early for this wonderful treat; you can always head back home for a nap later) a breakfast at this wonderful spot is the best way to begin your day of Labor Day celebrations!
South Padre Island Tacos & Tequilas 2023, September 2 & 3, SPI Convention Center
If you have lived in Texas for more than a minute, we can guess that you have an affinity for Mexican food and the quintessential alcoholic beverages that accompany most meals, making the SPI Tacos & Tequilas 2023 festival one that you will not want to miss! Eat your fill of tacos, vote for your favorite of all time, sip your way through a variety of tequilas, and celebrate this all-American holiday in the way your new Southwestern neighbors will wholeheartedly approve of!
Farmers Market at The Shores, Sundays from 11 AM until 1 PM, 8605 Padre Boulevard
Chances are at some point during this long weekend you are going to want to enjoy a family barbecue in the large backyard of your new home and although you could head over to the Blue Marlin for groceries, it is always much more enjoyable to browse the aisles of the South Padre Island Farmers Market. Offering everything from fresh produce to fresh flowers, visitors can also find homemade baked goods, local honey, and a variety of other treats that will enhance your family barbecue on the big day!
Live Music at Clayton’s Beach Bar & Event Venue, Sunday, September 3
Summer holidays require a healthy dose of music to truly retain its carefree vibe and Clayton’s Beach Bar & Event Venue, located at 6900 Padre Boulevard, is offering a special performance by Secretto, best enjoyed with one of their Turbo Pina Coladas! Stay out as late as you wish, knowing that you can sleep in the next morning on this bonus weekend night in the middle of a holiday weekend. The seafood at Clayton’s Beach Bar is sweet and fresh, so be sure to order your favorite dish while there!
A Day at the Beach
Every day off in summer is the perfect day to enjoy some time at the beach and even though you may find that you don’t go to the beach as often as you used to before you moved to our barrier island home, there is just something about Labor Day that makes a day at the beach the perfect idea. If you aren’t lucky enough to be living within walking distance of the beach, load up your car with all the gear you have been adding to your inventory (towels, umbrellas, beach chairs, and a cooler filled with food and drink) and head to the sandy shores for a day of fun and relaxation! This may be the perfect time to build a sandcastle with your littles or it may just be a day where you nap, wade, read, and lose yourself in the beauty of the sea! There is no wrong way to enjoy the beach, just make sure you get out and do it!
