2 Site Description Ward Island bordered by Corpus Christi Bay to the north, Oso Bay to the south, Oso Inlet to the east, and the Blind Oso Inlet to the west is the location of Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi and University Beach, which is located along the northern shoreline.
3 Site Description A beach existed along Ward Island prior to the occupation of Ward Island and the Encinal Peninsula by military in the early 1930's. Aerial photographs indicate that there was abundant sand along the shoreline (the light regions on the images) from Ward Island to what is now Naval Air Station-Corpus Christi. Development of this area led to the loss of this natural resource.
