Soaring bridges spanning scenic waterways lead to outdoor adventure filled with birding, fishing and exotic wildlife. Port Arthur unites land and sea in Southeast Texas, where our motto is “laissez les bons temps rouler.” That translates to “let the good times roll,” and it’s our attitude for welcoming tourists to the shores of Lake Sabine.
