I love this place. You can't find a more relaxed and friendly place than Galveston. I was 4 years old the first time I went and have been back a dozen times since. I laugh everytime I see the pink trailer house on stilts and wonder what kind of character owns it. Off shore fishing is great, even better is fishing off the pier with my 3 year-old at the state park, especially because you don't have to purchase a lisence. This is the perfect place for beach bums. If you're expecting 5 star hotels and white sand beaches, don't bother. We don't want a bunch of bitchy snobs cluttering up the beach anyway.
