Whether you’re a family seeking gentle waves, a group of friends in search of a good time, or an outdoor enthusiast, Galveston has a beach just for you!
At the far eastern tip of the island, you’ll find East Beach, a hotspot with a pavilion, boardwalk, entertainment stage, restrooms, showers, and plenty of chair and umbrella rentals. Plus, it’s one of the few beaches where you can enjoy a drink—cheers to that!
For a family-friendly vibe, Stewart Beach is the place to be. Named one of the “10 Best Beaches for Families” by Family Vacation Critic, it’s located where Broadway meets the Seawall.
