Del Rio at a Glance
Del Rio supports many outdoor sites and indoor attractions for guests. One of
the most popular activities in the area is fishing at Lake
Amistad. This lake is one of the biggest in Texas
and lends itself to activities like water skiing, jet skiing, camping, boating,
picnicking and much more. The past days of Del Rio can be found simply by walking
through the historic downtown or going to the Whitehead
Memorial Museum. For those interested in wine, Texas' oldest bonded winery
Val
Verde, which has been operating since 1883, is close by. There are plenty
of sites in the area around Del Rio, like Seminole
Canyon State Park, which holds ancient cave drawings; Del Rio's sister city,
Ciudad Acuna, which is located across the Mexican border and offers a unique dining
and shopping experience; and the area used for John Wayne's film, The Alamo, in
Brackettville.
