Location Location Location is the golden rule in real estate and Wild Sands is located on the most ideal spot of the north end of South Padre Island. This is one of the widest buildable areas and has some of the tallest sand dunes on the entire Padre Island chain. We shot some video standing on a 25' sand dune on the ocean side, just wait until you see this! There is nothing else like it on Padre Island. You'll think we took the video from an aerial shot.
