Keep Boca Chica Beach
· Texas Border Business

A proposal to rename Boca Chica Beach to 'Cyber Beach' has sparked significant opposition from local communities in South Texas. The name change, suggested by an individual from Mississippi, is seen as disregarding the beach's long history and cultural importance since at least 1936. Local officials, including those from Cameron County and Brownsville, along with Congressman Vicente Gonzalez, have expressed their disapproval. The process has been criticized for lacking public awareness, with many residents learning about the federal vote only a day in advance. Boca Chica Beach, known as 'The People’s Beach,' is viewed as a vital part of the region's identity and heritage.
