Kingsville is a great place to visit anytime of the year. Our average temperature is 72 degrees, and our winters, which are home to many Winter Texans, are extremely moderate.
There is a wide selection of recreational opportunities to keep people of all ages active. Fishing and hunting are among the area’s most popular outdoor activities. Baffin Bay, located just south of Kingsville in Riviera, is world-renowned for its large spotted sea trout. The historic King Ranch is a working ranch with exotic game, dove and quail hunts offered. Guided tours are offered at specified times throughout the day and give a fascinating glimpse into Kingsville’s past as well as King Ranch’s invaluable contributions to current-day practices.
