Rawling’s Cut

Rawling’s Cut provides easy access to East Matagorda Bay and Condo Cove. This is one of the most popular access sites for kayak fishing in the area. Once you paddle out through the cut, it opens up into condo cove in the southwestern corner of east matagorda bay. The bottom is mostly hard mud with some sand over the top and there are a couple of reefs in the area.

Getting There:

From Matagorda head south on FM 2031 across the bridge. The access site is just past Rawling’s Bait Camp on your left side.
Coordinates: 28.62607, -95.97071

Parking & Facilities:

Park on the wide shoulder on the west side of FM 2031 near the put in. Make sure you do not block any driveways. There are no other facilities at this site.

Matagorda Beach

High Tide Warning! We are experiencing 16mph onshore winds in Matagorda today. The tide is already high. The forecast for tomorrow is for 35+MPH winds which we expect will drive the tide even higher than today. It is possible the tide will push all the way to the dunes overnight and tomorrow. We recommend you pay close attention to the conditions if you plan to head down beach today or Saturday. Be especially careful if you plan to camp on the beach overnight. Also the driving conditions are 4x4 only right now. ... See MoreSee Less
