Best Time to Fly to South Padre Island, TX

If you’re booking flights to South Padre Island in search of sun, then the best time to go is undoubtedly the warmer half of the year, between April and October. Spring Breakers flock to the area from February to April, so if you don’t want to be stuck doing tequila shots at Senior Frogs, plan your trip after Spring Break season. 

Be careful if you’re planning your vacation toward the end of the hot season, though, because the month of September brings the most rainfall of any other month in the year. Wintertime stays cool in the 50’s and 60’s, and since it’s not prime time to sunbathe, you’re likely to find deals on accommodations and cheap flights to South Padre during that time. The months between September and November call for the occasional hurricane, but most of them aren’t seriously damaging.

Getting around South Padre Island, TX

Walking is a great way to explore South Padre. Renting a car is another option but bear in mind that parking could be tricky during the peak season. There is also a shuttle bus around South Padre but it gets very busy during Spring Break.
