Galveston, Historic Pleasure Pier

A trip to Galveston would be incomplete without spending a day at the island’s historic Pleasure Pier amusement park! With extreme favorites like the Iron Shark Rollercoaster and the Cyclone, as well as kid-friendly rides and games, the Pier is a “top ten fun thing to do” in Galveston with family. Recharge and refuel at any of the excellent restaurants, including Texas’ first Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. location.

Consider calling a comfortable rental house, condo or cottage your home-base when exploring the best attractions in Galveston.
