Grab a board; surf's up in Port Aransas. The Colombian Navy's Tall Ship, the ARC Gloria, sails past Port Aransas as spectators wave Texas and Colombian flags. As the sun goes down on Mustang Island, the sky, beach and water turn a spectacular pink. A sailboat appears to sail into the sunset on a summer evening in Port Aransas -- a daily occurence among what many call just another day in Paradise. Some things for beachgoers to keep an eye out for this time of year are nesting sea turtles. The turtles, such as Hanna, an endangered Kemp's ridley turtle shown here with Andi Wickham, Frank Selcer and Padre Island National Seashore worker Shelby Walker. The turtles come up on the beach to lay eggs in the spring, crossing roadways to get to the dunes. The nesting season runs from roughly the first of April till mid-July, Shaver said, though it peaks in May and by mid-June has begun to taper off. Should you find one nesting on Mustang Island, call The University of Texas at Austin's Animal Rehabilitation Keep at (361) 442-7638 or (361) 215-8827. If you find one on Padre Island, call Shaver at Padre Island National Seashore, (361) 949-8173, ext. 226. Sometimes a great day at the beach is no more than just sitting in the water. Once plentiful, tarpon are showing up in greater numbers, thanks in part to a catch and release policy. Tarpon were once so plentiful that Port Aransas was named Tarpon in the early 1900s. Summer in Port Aransas gets started with the Take A Kid Fishing Tournament that encourages parents to spend the day fishing with their kids - - or a friend's kid. It is sponsored by the Redfish Bay Chapter of the Coastal Conservation Association with support from the Port Aransas Boatmen, Inc. Kids from zip to 18 may enter --and every angler wins a prize, whether it's a rod and reel rig or a t-shirt, no one goes home empty-handed. This year's tournament is on the calendar for Saturday, June 2. Sunset Sounds, a monthly free outdoor concert sponsored by the Port Aransas Parks and Recreation Department, provides a chance to listen to a variety of music in Roberts Point Park.
