Starting January 1, the 2025 Beach Parking Permits will be available for purchase at participating vendors for everyone to enjoy our amazing Gulf Coast beaches.
The Corpus Christi Parks and Recreation Department wants to remind beach visitors that these permits are required on designated beaches along the shoreline and are valid from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025.
