Been riding an old 29er for a while and finally getting a new specialized AWOL as a commuter/touring ride and want to start seeing some sites.

Figured the beach was a great first destination—flat-ish—and we can make it into some nice shorter segments by camping halfway in Wharton state park. Pretty psyched and wanted to share our route.

Anyone have any experience with this trip? Any recommendations, campsites, restaurants, sites, etc.?
