Padre Island is the second-largest island by area in the contiguous United States, after Long Island in New York on the Atlantic Coast. It is about 113 miles (182 km) long and 1.8 miles (3 km) wide, stretching from the city of Corpus Christi, in the north, to the resort community of South Padre Island in the south.
1957-1961 Local interests dredged a channel across Padre Island and constructed two tetrapod jetties at the entrance to the Gulf of Mexico. The north and south jetties were 1,600 and 800 ft long, respectively, and spaced 1,000 ft apart.
