This statue memorial is located on Ocean drive. It is very nice and attracts a lot of people. There’s some parking nearby. There’s a nice walk along this area. Full review by TravelingBum52

Amazingly beautiful statue not nearly as beautiful as Selena is but worth every second to visit. Selena music played and it was amazing and sad to hear her voice Full review by Se K
Ia there a cost for rhe Selena grave site and museum
A:
Grave site, no. It is a little hard to find because there's no signs showing where it is at. The museum does have a cost but it's like less than 5 dollars.
do you have to cross any main bridges to travel from San Antonio to Corpus Christi?

No bridges other than overpasses along I-37. In fact I-37 empties out onto North Shoreline Blvd just a few blocks from the Selena statue on the corner of Shoreline Blvd and Peoples Street. Shoreline is a divided Blvd so keep in mind that Selena in on the Bay side. Easy to find and plenty of free parking on the T-Head at the end of Peoples St. Its a quick walk to the statue. By the way, Landry"s restaurant is on the T-Head. Harrison's Landing is also on the T-Head. I would not recommend eating there. There are many more restaurants around the downtown area. Long John Silvers is better than Harrison's Landing. You can read my review on that place. I hope I have answered your question for you. Enjoy your visit.
What is the significance of the Selena statute facing West?
A:
You asked about "facing west." Her body faces south, but she looks east. No real reason why she is on that side except maybe better viewing as pedestrians approach along the sea wall.
