Cristo de los Pescadores

El Cristo de los Pescadores memorial translates to “Christ of the Fishermen” is located on south end of the Island at the Isla Blanca Park.

The memorial was donated to the Brownsville-Port Isabel Shrimp Producers Association by the De la Lastra Family in memory of Gustavo De la Lastra and Jose Edwardo De la Lastra. Around the base of the statue of Jesus is an inscription that reads “Father! Receive the souls of these brave fishermen who have sailed through this pass and never returned.”
