It’s always a pleasure to visit this place! Going back to Galveston is a plan we make every month. We live in Houston, so a one-hour trip to enjoy this beauty monthly and see how it changes in every season is simply something that makes us value the opportunity to live so close! We love Galveston!
We visited the Strand during Mardi gras and had a fantastic time. Parades and music. We're all over along with street vendors. And a overall good time
We visit several times a year. All our familiar stops, but always find something new and fun! Endless possibilities on the Galveston island!
I absolutely loved walming the Seawall and Beach at Galveston. Detourjng through the Historic Downtown are was fantastic. The old homes really take you back in time.
Beautiful downtown area oozing charm and character. You can tell the area is well maintained and the restaurants and bars are very reasonably priced! We took a walk along the sea shore and enjoyed the many seafood markets here. Reminds me of Tokyo when I was there!
Always a fun place to come hang out and look around. Lots of cool shops and I retesting things to do and eat and try. The jerky place is good and has unique things to try, and gives samples. The la king candy shop is yummy. And it is just a pretty and older place to walk around.
Nice for a romantic stroll or a family adventure. Lots to do and see. La Kings is a must stop. There malts are amazing. Hand made candy. Lots of space. Love this place. Go see the Elissa boat. Great piece of history. Be sure to watch the video. Lots of info.
The Strand is a great district to visit. So much to see and do. There is a Starbucks of course. There are ice cream parlors, bars, live music, Rocky Mountain Chocolate, museums, restaurants and so much more. You can walk to the pier and may see huge jellyfish or take a dolphin tour. There is a trolley also than you can ride. I love the carriage rides that are also informative. Most of the people are very friendly in the shops. There are great finds. A little helpful fact is that lots of these shops have coupons to the Landrys restaurants for things like priority seating and free appetizers! Must pay for parking but it is reasonable.
