Visit Galveston, Texas' historic first city. The hostel is located on the beach within walking distance to the historic downtown Strand Area. Explore the oceans of the world, step into a living rainforest or take a ride in the IMAX theater all at the world-class Moody Gardens. Visit one of our 12 museums of the Akokisa, Mardi Gras traditions or the fury of the Great Storm. Stroll through the renovated Strand Area, and enjoy the variety of shops and restaurants. Sit on the edge of the bay and watch ships come and go from the historic port located on beautiful Galveston Bay. Houston with its Space Center, Six Flags theme park and Splashtown are a short drive away. With all the fun things to do, however, be sure to save time for the beach right out of the hostel's front door.
