Palacios, Texas - City by the Sea
Shrimp Capital of Texas
Palacios' name is derived from a
legend that a Spanish ship was wrecked off the nearby coast.
Sailors from that shipwreck saw a mirage of three palaces, and
swam towards the shore where the palaces seemed to be. Of course,
the palaces disappeared, but the name remained.
Because of it's unique and beautiful bay, Palacios has always
been known for it's water related events. Whether you enjoy
fishing, sailing, boating, or just
relaxing at the beach, Palacios is the place to be.
