Corpus is a dump but Port Aransas is nearby and decent.
I will second the recommendation to skip the coast and hit the lakes or other hill country sites.

Very high (possibly number 1) on the list of "dumb shit I did as a teenager" was to get piss drunk at a club in Matamoros and wander the streets while fading in and out of a black out. Woke up in a hotel room on the right side of the border with some people that were friendly and that I kinda knew from my part of Dallas but definitely not anyone from my group. Thankful to this day my bones did not end up as some jewelry or some shit.
