Sun, surf, and wind — Corpus Christi near Robstown is a dream destination for windsurfers. Novices and windsurfing enthusiasts alike flock to spots like Mustang Island to experience the exhilaration and speed of a breezy day spent on the water.
Whether you’re heading to Bird Island Basin, Laguna Madre, or another popular windsurfing destination, you need the right car to get you and all your gear there. Keep reading to learn what to look for in a car you want to take windsurfing, why the Nissan Rogue fits the bill, and accessories to make the drive even more enjoyable.
You need a windsurfing car that’s up for the adventure. For starters, you’ll have a lot of gear to bring along. Ample cargo space and roof rack capabilities are non-negotiable.
You also need to consider the terrain you’ll hit on the way to your favorite windsurfing spots. You need a vehicle ready to drive on sand and other uneven terrain so you can confidently reach more remote windsurfing locations.
From cruising coastal highways to maneuvering on Mustang Island sand, the Nissan Rogue can make the drive just as exhilarating as the surf. Here’s why it’s the perfect fit for your next Windsurfing excursion.
The Nissan Rogue offers ample cargo space, especially when the rear seats are folded down. Recent models clock about 70 cubic feet of cargo space, so you can easily store windsurfing sails, towels, wetsuits, lifejackets, coolers, extra clothes, dry bags, and whatever else you may need for the trip.
You can’t windsurf without your board! The Rogue supports roof rack attachments, making it easy to transport longer windsurfing boards securely. Many models come with factory-installed roof rails, or you can add aftermarket crossbars.
The Nissan Rogue offers rugged handling for those sandy roads. If you windsurf in areas with sandy, gravel, or unpaved roads, the AWD system available on certain trims helps with better traction and handling.
If you currently live in Robstown or Corpus Christi, you may not have to worry about a long drive. But if you live in surrounding areas or plan to visit another windsurfing city, you need a vehicle ready to handle the road trip. The Rogue offers up to 35 MPG on the highway, making it fuel-efficient for longer road trips to your favorite windsurfing spots.
The Rogue is bursting with premium interior features that make each drive as smooth as the wind in your sail. These features include:
Some Rogue models (like the 2025 Rogue Rock Creek) offer a motion-activated liftgate that makes it easier to load and unload your windsurfing equipment. You don’t have to juggle gear while trying to access your cargo area.
Combining the best car for windsurfing with the right travel accessories can make a world of difference. Whether you’re cruising around Corpus or heading out of state, consider adding these accessories to your packing list.
Imagine loading up your Nissan Rogue, securing your board to the roof, and setting out at sunrise for a perfect day at Bird Island Basin.
