Overview

Dolphin Cove is a kitesurf spot on the Laguna Madre, the bay side of South Padre Island, near the island's southern tip. The cove offers very shallow and protected waters, perfect for learning. Dolphins are regularly spotted in this area, hence the spot's name. It's one of the easiest accesses to the flats from the developed area of SPI, with accommodations and restaurants nearby.
