About The Sandbox
Sandbox Beach Bar is a laid-back beachfront destination located along the Michael J. Ellis Seawall on North Padre Island in Corpus Christi, Texas, where coastal views, good energy, and simple fun come together.
Created as more than just a bar, Sandbox is a place to unwind, connect, and enjoy the best parts of island life. Whether you’re coming straight off the beach, meeting friends for sunset, or spending the day outside with family, Sandbox offers an easygoing escape with something for everyone.

Our Space
Our open-air space features shipping container-inspired design, outdoor seating, wide-open water views, beach volleyball, pickleball courts, and plenty of outdoor games. Guests can enjoy refreshing cocktails, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages alongside a rotating lineup of local food trucks serving casual, quality bites.
Creating Community
Sandbox is family friendly, pet friendly, and rooted in community. From local live music and relaxed afternoons to lively evenings and special events, the space was designed for locals and visitors to gather, stay awhile, and enjoy the moment.


Create Island Memories
Looking to celebrate? Sandbox also serves as a unique venue for private events, parties, and special occasions, with flexible outdoor spaces perfect for birthdays, group gatherings, and island-style celebrations.
Come for a drink, stay for the atmosphere, and play in the Sandbox.
Parking
We offer dedicated parking directly in front of the property for our guests. Additional parking is
available at the public lot at Windward Beach Access.
Guests may also choose to park on the beach and walk up, using the dedicated staircase at the
seawall access point. The Sandbox is easily accessible from both the seawall and the main
road off Windward Drive.
