Longing to take a dip in the ocean, or check out a fishing festival? Ebony Haven is just a 30-minute drive from South Padre Island, Texas, where Sand Castle Days (Oct. 3-6) and SPI Fishing Days (Oct. 19-20) await. And fall migration season is underway, if you are interested in fantastic birding opportunities. Treat yourself to a stay at La Hacienda before the busyness of the holidays sets in!
