Galveston Island

I love visiting Galveston. Pleasure pier and just relaxing by the beach with nice company and yummy food and drinks, enjoying the sunset. I have beautiful memories of my old dance competitions. Yes, as a person who grew up living so closed to beautiful beaches I understand the beach is not the nicest but Galveston is still a vibe. You gotta go with the right mindset to have fun. This is closest thing that you will get to beach vibes if you live in the Houston area. I enjoy this little Island and I want to explore more.

These are some of my favorite places so far.

Rainforest Cafe

Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier

-Any recommendations of nice coffee shops, smoothie places, Caribbean food, museums etc.

Pleasure pier is way overpriced in my opinion. But i haven’t gone in years so maybe the prices are better now. I love the look of the pier from the beach though

Take the ferry to Galveston

If you love local short trips, I recommend staying on Bolivar Peninsula Island. They have cheaper houses in Galveston and it’s beautiful views always. You can take the ferry over to Galveston for more things to do and shopping, etc. and it doesn’t take very long. It’s about a 15 to 20 minute ride t
