Padre Island National Seashore
Gas Station
 

The park has no gas station. The nearest gas station is approximately ten miles north of the park. 

If you are traveling down island, be aware that driving in four-wheel-drive mode and through deep sand will probably expend significantly more gas than on a highway.  Please plan accordingly.  You may need to take extra gas if going down island.
