This large body of shallow water separates Padre Island from the mainland. It
is an important breeding ground for some aquatic birds and is a wintering
stopover for numerous species. Sport fishing is rewarding with redfish, black
drum and flounder. Two public boat ramps allow easy access to Laguna Madre and
the nearby Gulf of Mexico. www.tpwd.state.tx.us/landwater/water/conservation/txgems/lgmadr.
