Take a tour of the mansion! I have done this and I really enjoyed the tours. You can visit the Moody Mansion or Bishops Palace on separate days or both could be done on the same day. Just know that there are a lot of stairs to climb.

Located at 6316 Stewart Rd. We ate dinner at this restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed our meal! We ordered beef Fajitas Gratinadas. These fajitas were served with grilled mushrooms, bell peppers, onions and topped with lots of cheese! The plate also came with rice, charro beans and guacamole. We also enjoyed a beer and margarita! It was a delicious dinner and reasonably priced.

Located @ 3502A Seawall Blvd. My husband loves this place because of the fish and chips! The portions are huge and they let us split the order! We’ve had the deviled eggs and duck wings for appetizers - highly recommend them as well 😋 They have a nice menu that includes steaks for the beef eaters. They do have outdoor seating for those beautiful nights out.

Located at 2200 Harborside Dr. This is a lovely place for a special night out. You have the option of eating out on the patio overlooking the water. We had catfish and fish and chips along with cocktails. The catfish was amazing and we highly recommend it! The fish and chips were ok but my husband and I agreed that we prefer the fish and chips from Brick House Tavern 😋 But if you’re looking for a nice night out - this is the place❤️

Shopping/Exploring

I like going to the Strand because there’s a variety of things to do and see. If you like to browse/shop there are several shops to explore! If you are hungry and want to grab a bite there are several restaurants to choose from. Or if you want a cup of coffee or a cocktail, you can do that as well and take a seat and just sit back and enjoy your beverage of choice! FREE thing to do if you’re just browsing and exploring ⭐️

Every time my husband and I visit Galveston we make it a point to stop by Murdoch’s! We enjoy buying a cocktail and seating in the breezeway in one of their rocking chairs and looking out into the gulf. We then walk around looking at all the goodies and souvenirs that Murdoch’s has to offer. For us it’s a very relaxing time😎 FREE thing to do if you just browse and explore in and around Murdoch’s! ⭐️

Fishing

This is one of my favorite places! My husband and I were married on the beach by this pier! You can fish off the pier for a fee or if you buy something you can walk around the observation deck. They do sell beer and wine coolers if you want to enjoy a cocktail and watch the sun set! It’s open 24 hours so you can fish as long as you want!

Seawolf is a great place to fish! It’s a big area so plenty of room to spread out. If you’re not into fishing, you can go there to sight see! They have a WWII submarine, the USS Cavalla, a destroyer - the USS Stewart. And the remains of the WWI tanker S.S. Selma, the largest concrete ship constructed. Or you can have a picnic! There’s a playground for the kids and picnic tables!

Great place to try your luck at fishing! I’ll be honest we’ve not caught anything big to brag about but we’ve caught a belly full of laughs at the pin fish “bait thieves” eating up our bait one bite at a time! We have seen others catch good size fish, unfortunately we’ve not been one of those people. But we still enjoy going there and giving it a try!
