The Sabal Palm Sanctuary is a 557-acre nature reserve and bird sanctuary located in the delta of the Rio Grande Valley in Cameron County near Brownsville, Texas. It is noted for being one of the last locations in the Rio Grande Valley with a profuse grove of sabal palms, an edible-heart-bearing palm much prized by pre-Hispanic inhabitants and noted by early explorers. As a relatively habitat-rich remnant of this Valley, it is a prized birdwatching and butterfly watching location for persons interested in the ecology of the Valley and adjacent states of northern Mexico. The Sabal Palm Sanctuary closely approaches the southernmost point in the state of Texas, and is the southernmost point accessible to the public

Co si sbalit

pack for both light cold weather and hot temps

Brownsville weather can be unpredictable. During our "colder" season, lows tend to reach 50 degrees and during the day will rise to low 80 degrees.
Místní doprava

not a walking-friendly city.

Safe city but locations are fairly far apart, therefore, rental cars are recommended or uber/taxis.
