Dallas/Houston Weekend Getaway to Galveston: The Ultimate Guide
I've always wanted to visit Galveston, but I heard the sea was dirty, so I didn't plan to swim πββοΈ. However, there are many other attractions here, so I decided to come for a weekend getaway~ First Stop: The Grand Old Fort π°, the 1900 hurricane almost leveled Galveston, but this fort was preserved due to its limestone construction. It's now a private residence open to the public. The admission fee is $15 πͺ, so go for it!! Location: 1402 Broadway Avenue J, Galveston, TX 77550 Second Stop: π 5 minutes - Explore: Katieβs Seafood Recommended dishes are the seafood chowder and bluefin tuna. After eating, take a walk along the seaside promenade. Third Stop: π 3 minutes: Historic Downtown. Take a city walk where you can see large cruise ships, trolleys, horse-drawn carriages, many small shops, and stop for a break at Starbucks. Fourth Stop: π 4 minutes: Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier. Take a leisurely walk on the beach and relax. There's also a small amusement park π‘ nearby. Houston is warmer than Dallas, feeling like early summer, and it's the perfect season to visit! #DallasWeekend #Galveston #HoustonGalveston #HoustonWeekend #HoustonFood #TexasLife
