Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer on the Texas Gulf Coast — and if you’re planning a fishing trip, a beach getaway, or an extended coastal stay near Magnolia Beach, Port Lavaca, or Indianola, there’s one RV park that checks every box without breaking the bank.
Magnolia Beach RV Park sits just off the coast in Port Lavaca, TX — a quiet, full-hookup park with all utilities included, concrete pads, and a location that puts you within a short bike ride of the beach and minutes from some of the best inshore fishing on the Texas Gulf Coast.
Whether you’re chasing redfish and trout in Matagorda Bay, attending one of Calhoun County’s summer fishing tournaments, or simply looking for an affordable base camp for a week or a month on the water, this guide covers everything you need to know.
The stretch of coastline between Port Lavaca, Magnolia Beach, and Indianola is one of Texas’s most underrated fishing destinations. Here’s what draws anglers back every summer:
Summer 2026 also brings the 53rd Annual Port Lavaca Juneteenth Celebration (June 19–21, 2026) — a free, community-wide event open to everyone. If you’re planning an extended stay, it’s a great addition to your itinerary.
Located at 352 Margie Tewmey Rd, Port Lavaca, TX 77979, Magnolia Beach RV Park is a no-frills, value-focused coastal RV park designed for guests who want a clean, quiet place to stay — with everything they need and nothing they don’t.

Here’s a sample itinerary for a week-long fishing trip based out of Magnolia Beach RV Park:
Check in contactlessly, get your rig set up on a concrete pad, and take a short bike ride down to Magnolia Beach to scout the shoreline. Stop at the nearby gas station to grab bait, ice, and supplies for the week.
Launch at Indianola Fishing Marina at first light. Target speckled trout on the shallow grass flats of Matagorda Bay. The marina offers live bait and a boat ramp — everything you need for a full day on the water.
Take it easy with a morning at Indianola Fishing Park. Drop crab traps off the pier, cast for flounder along the shoreline, and enjoy the views across the bay. Free access, no crowds.
Head to the Port Lavaca Fishing Pier — one of the longest lighted piers on the Texas coast. Great for night fishing during summer when trout and redfish are active after dark.
Take a day trip to the historic Indianola townsite, where a once-thriving port city was wiped out by back-to-back hurricanes in the 1870s. The area now features a historical marker, beach access, and excellent birding along the bay.
Rent or launch your own kayak for a close-up look at the shallow flats near Magnolia Beach. Kayak fishing for redfish in skinny water is one of the most exciting ways to experience the Texas Gulf Coast.
One last morning walk on Magnolia Beach with the dog, pack up, and check out contactlessly. No hassle, no waiting — just an easy departure after a great week on the coast.
