Houston’s Best Beach 🏖️ Is Right Here!

📍：East Beach This place is a true hidden gem 💎 in the Houston area! The sand is much finer and cleaner than around Galveston Pier — plus, it’s less crowded and the waves are gentle 🌊. 🅿️ Parking: You can drive your car 🚙 right onto the beach! The sign says it’s $15/day, but we’ve been multiple times and no one ever collected the fee — felt like free parking! 📌 Tip: It’s best to take a 4WD vehicle. If you have a 2WD, try to pick a smooth, packed section of sand and keep a steady speed ⚡. A friend’s car got stuck once… so be cautious! (You can also park near the entrance and avoid the risk altogether.) 🍕 Food: It’s only an 8-minute drive from the main restaurant area near Galveston Pier 🍤! You can also pack a picnic and enjoy it right on the sand. 🎣 Fishing: This beach is quiet with a long coastline — you can even stand in the water to fish! Kids absolutely love this 🎉! We were catching fish less than a minute after casting… and some were pretty big! 🦐 Live bait: Stop by Aunt Margie’s Bait Camp for live shrimp 🍤 and fresh seafood — lots of people buy from here to take home! Perfect for a family day out, fishing fun, or just soaking up the sun ☀️. Don’t miss it! #Houston #BeachDay #Fishing #FamilyTravel #TexasTravel #HoustonLife #CoastalVibes #SeasideFun #TravelWithKids #HiddenGems
