Beautiful Coastal City With Lots Of Potential 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) Living in Rockport, TX was a very interesting experience for my family and I. We enjoyed ourselves for the short period of time we were here. This city is a small coastal city that has a lot to offer. This city was near the coast, so there was quite a bit of attractions to see an ...Read More d do. There was quite a bit of city life here, which I can definitely appreciate coming from a busy city in CA. The potential for work here was good. There were plenty of businesses open for business, so I assume that employment was doing well.

The best areas in Rockport, TX was the activities that were open to the public. One of the places we enjoyed best was The Aquarium at Rockport Harbor on Navigation Circle. This place was pretty small for an aquarium, but we thought it was very good for the kids because there was plenty to learn. The beaches here were also very nice to come to. The weather overall was very beautiful. Sometimes it felt more humid some days than others. Read Less
