Planning a Galveston Getaway

WebEditor 3 years ago 2 min read

Galveston Island is a great place to visit for an island getaway, whether it’s for a weekend or a week. It has much to offer any type of holiday, from the solo retreat to the destination wedding. If you are looking for a romantic getaway or a family vacation, Galveston has that covered, too. It is rich in history and ripe for outdoor activities. Planning your island escape is easier than you think but putting it in place before you go will save you the hassle of trying to figure it out on the fly.

Transportation

Galveston Island is close enough to Houston to make transportation planning a breeze. Houston’s two major airports provide service from virtually any location in the world. It is, of course, possible to rent a car to give you the freedom driving offers; however, it might not be worth the challenges you will face in traffic and small island driving and parking. Instead, look for alternative options. Even large parties will find it easy to arrange a shuttle bus Galveston Island TX. Once on the island, you will find convenient transportation options. If you drive, there are ample paid parking lots and metered spots. Galveston also offers public transport to virtually any location you would want to visit on the island.

Accommodation

Galveston has a plethora of accommodation choices, from Airbnbs and bed and breakfasts to luxury hotels and resorts. If your trip coincides with the high season, which is during the summer months, plan early. This is especially true if you are needing to find a location that can serve larger parties. With options for where to rest your head at night located across the island, it is best to know what it is you intend to do during your visit, as well as the type of lodging you desire so that you can filter the potentially overwhelming array of choices.

Recreation

Outdoor recreation, history, art and culture, shopping and dining and plenty of festivals offer visitors the opportunity to experience any type of getaway they desire. It is useful to create an itinerary for your stay but allow yourself the freedom for spontaneity as well. Create your list of must-do activities and then schedule in some free time where you can do whatever it is that meets with your mood at the time.

Galveston Island is a great getaway location. There is so much to see and do for any type of visit and for any visitor. Plan your transportation, accommodation and recreation ahead of time to ensure your getaway is everything you desire in your island escape.
