Here on Shoreline Boulevard in Corpus Christi, Texas, multiple communities converge in this area based on the time of day, the season, and even the day of week.
Communities that make up this area include:
- The live-on-board community that reside year-round here at Cooper's Alley L-Head and the T-Heads at the Corpus Christi Marina on their water craft (yachts and boats). Click the "Show in Google Maps" link [below], view in hybrid mode, and zoom in to view the L and T-shaped areas.
- The sailing community is very active in the Corpus Christi area. The US Open windsurfing regatta is held in the Corpus Christi Bay. Each Wednesday evening, there's a sailboat race here too. Visit the Corpus Christi Yachting Center, the Corpus Christi Marina, and the Corpus Christi Yacht Club sites for sailing information. Here's a great promotional video from the Corpus Christi Municipal Marina
- The fishing community that brings in daily catches of shrimp to this area.
- The beach-going, sun-worshiping, holiday makers that flock to Corpus Christi at every available opportunity.
- The potter community, throwing pots and working clay at the Art Center of Corpus Christi's Clay Studio.
