The Rio Grande meanders toward its terminus at the Gulf of Mexico, defining the international boundary between the United States and Mexico. The landscape is dominated by tidal flats and low-lying coastal formations known as lomas, including Loma de la Pita and Loma de los Tequios. Near the coastline, the settlement of Kopernik Shores is visible along Boca Chica Blvd, marking a pocket of development amidst the wetlands and salt marshes.
