Review:
Surrounded by St. Charles and Aransas Bays on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Goose Island State Park spans 321.4 acres north of the city of Rockport. Established on private land in the early 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the park is home to the famous Big Tree – a magnificent 44-foot tall Southern Oak tree that is thought to be over 1,000 years old. The park has several campsites with potable water, electricity and sewerage hookups, picnic tables, and grills, and welcomes more than 60,000 overnight campers each year. Activities in the park include boating, fishing, kayaking, birding and wildlife watching.
