BEACHES

Galveston being an island, it is surrounded by sand, although in many places it has been replaced by concrete and boulders. The city itself is content with its own beaches. The two best are certainly East Beach and Stewart Beach, located in the northeast of the island. However, one should not expect paradisiacal beaches. If they have the advantage of being vast, their sand is far from being the finest in the world and the water is often brown rather than blue. A large number of beaches are located in the middle of the island, facing the Gulf.
