Brownsville is a semi-tropical paradise of stately palm trees, ever-blooming bougainvilleas, exotic birds, and warm Gulf breezes. Steeped in a rich South Texas heritage and located on the banks of the Rio Grande, Brownsville is a perfect two nation leisure travel destination with Matamoros, Mexico, just steps away and two beautiful Gulf of Mexico beaches less than half an hour away.

The rich heritage of two countries separated by the once mighty Rio Grande, but joined by hundreds of years of tradition, history and family welcomes you. The many festivals throughout the year bring the local culture alive -- a great chance for you to join in on the fun. We’re on the border, by the beach.

Brownsville offers contemporary fine arts, shopping, golf courses, and many hospitality services. Brownsville is a dynamic, bustling city with a great climate and lush landscape that is ready to welcome you with open arms.

Naturally speaking, Texas Parks & Wildlife Magazine says that, "No matter what time of year you visit, birds and butterflies will be abundant here in this land ‘south of winter.’" As our guest, you get to enjoy all this, our favorable cost of living and many great values. This year, do like the birds, come, stay in Brownsville.
