Day Trip Near Houston | Galveston Pleasure Pier 🎡
My partner talked me into trying three extreme rides at the Pleasure Pier — and let’s just say I survived… barely! 😅 I kept my eyes shut the entire time on the blue one 🎢 (totally terrifying!), but the other two were okay — still, my poor little heart couldn’t take much more! 💔 The all-day pass for adults is $26.99, which is pretty reasonable if you’re into thrill rides, arcade games, and classic boardwalk fun 🎯. 📌 A few tips if you go: ✅ Bring a change of clothes — you WILL get wet 💦! We originally wanted to have a nice dinner at one of the seaside restaurants 🍤, but we were completely soaked and shivering… so we had to head home early. Don’t make our mistake! ✅ Crowd alert: It was PACKED when we went — like, 95% of people weren’t wearing masks 😷. If that makes you nervous, maybe go on a weekday or during off-peak hours. ✅ Sunscreen and sand-friendly shoes are a must! 👒👟 Despite the thrill and chaos, the pier has a fun, lively vibe with great ocean views, cotton candy stands, and plenty of photo ops 📸. It’s especially magical around sunset 🌇. You’ll find the pier at: 📍 2501 Seawall Blvd, Galveston, TX 77550 Perfect for a spontaneous day trip, but come prepared — and maybe skip the extreme rides if you’re faint-hearted like me! 😂 #HoustonDayTrip #GalvestonPier #ExtremeRides #TravelTips #BoardwalkFun #TexasCoast #AmusementPark #WeekendVibes #FamilyFun #ThrillSeeker
