Galveston beach
Ultimate guide (December 2024)
Galveston is a city beach near Houston in Texas, USA. In general, this is a good place, if you are too lazy to get to more remote (and secluded) beaches. There is a notable pier with an amusement park in the central part of the coast. Everywhere, there are also breakwaters and embankment called
Seawall. Needless to say, that this place becomes overcrowded during the weekends. Shore and seabed: sand.
