Corpus Christi Beach, also referred to as North Beach by locals, is a natural beach that has been renourished and stabilized several times over the last 40 years. The most recent renourishment was conducted during 2001-2003.

Before the Corpus Christi Beach project, replenishment as a method of erosion response was not widely applied along the Texas coast due to a lack of economical beach-quality sediment sources and absence of a coordinated funding source. Beach fill at Corpus Christi Beach was constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) in 1971. The beach was built solely for recreational purposes using an underlayer of dredged bay sediments capped by sediments from an upland source (COE 1969). The City of Corpus Christi shared 50% of the total cost.

Coastal Structures include a terminal groin located near the mouth of the Nueces Bay. The purpose of the groin is to reduce loss of sand at the north end of the beach.
