Galveston Rental homes Galveston Real Estate - Local Attractions

Galveston is an island 33 miles long, just off the coast of Texas. An interactive map can be found here. Tropical and warm most of the year, the beaches are the main draw, with a fantastic preservation of history a close second. Shopping on the Strand area, which dates back to pre-1900 times or touring the Elissa, both bring a refreshing look at Galveston's history. Moody Garden's Aquarium and Rainforest pyramids and 3-D IMAX movies offer wonderful 21st century activities year round as well. No matter what you want in a vacation, Galveston can offer it to you: From the space science tours of nearby Johnson Space Center to simply reading a book while lying in a hammock. From birding, deep sea fishing to fishing from a chair in the yard at a canal home or walking the beach, surfing, sailing, shopping, eating! Galveston moves at YOUR pace. Come see why the majority of our resort home sales are to vacationers who have rented from us before! Galveston beach home rentals allow you to see why we have chosen to live here year round.
