Quintanas
Edit SpotAbout
If it’s big at surfside and really choppy it would be cleaner at Quintana but just a little smaller but it’s worth it.

From Houston, take 288 to 528 then to 332. When you get to 332, keep driving straight, don't turn at Surfside, where you're going straight you will finally see a sign on Quintana, then it will tell you were to go from there. It's close to Freeport.
