Things to Do

Once you’ve selected the perfect beachfront rental home, it’s time to start planning the rest of your Galveston beach vacation!

Popular attractions include Moody Gardens, the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier, and Schlitterbahn Galveston.

Outdoorsy adventurers will also appreciate biking or running at Galveston Island State Park, birding throughout the Island, and kayaking with Artist Boat at the Coastal Heritage Preserve.
