Information:	Imagine a tropical island. With miles of unspoiled beaches, it lies in the sun beside the sparkling Gulf of Mexico: the perfect place for a vacation. South Padre Island happens to be this place, and is home to Texas' first beach-based anime convention...Shimakon! Located at the Tropical Tip of Texas, Shimakon will bring a tropical experience with programming in English, Spanish, and Japanese. A hot spot for Spring Breakers, South Padre Island has proven to be very popular, Shimakon will be another reason to come visit this tropical place.
