The South Padre Island Jetties are good for a variety of species year-round. They can be good for Tarpon in the fall. The Jetties are also good for redfish in the spring and the fall. The South Jetty can be reached by taking State Highway 4 out of Brownsville to Boca Chica and then driving north up the beach. Theses jetties do not have as smooth a top surface as some and may be a little difficult to walk on. The South Jetty is much less crowded than the North Jetty.
