Galveston

Come to the quaint Gulf Coast barrier island of Galveston! Bordered by thirty-two miles of gorgeous Gulf beaches, this charming Texas retreat is the ideal getaway for couples, friends and families alike.

From kayak launches to prime fishing spots, Galveston is truly a haven for those who love life on the water, but it’s got so much more than beaches. Visit the famous Moody Gardens, where giant glass pyramids house sharks, monkeys and other animals. On the south shore, Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier is a hot spot for families with its many thrill rides and restaurants. On the west shore, Galveston Island State Park is a retreat for bird watchers. Go hiking there and see how many species you can spot (you may even spy an elusive whip-poor-will)! Wander around the city and take in its historic architecture, artworks, chic boutiques and more.
