4 nights cruise in the Caribbean on Liberty of the Seas

Galveston Island is a small isle that stretches along the Texas Gulf Coast. The island shares a similar shape with Langeland, but its area is twice as large. Galveston is the preferred resort for residents of the Texas capital, Houston, who flock to the many luxury summer homes during the spring and summer months. It also stands as a crucial stop for cruise ships navigating the southern United States.

Worth seeing
A visit to Galveston Island wouldn't be complete without immersing yourself in the romantic ambiance of The Strand District. A designated National Historic Landmark, The Strand District is a trove of unique, well-preserved Victorian-era buildings that transport you to another time. These vintage structures house antique shops, local restaurants, and host various popular festivals. The district eschews fast-food chains and international conglomerates, offering a more authentic experience.

For history enthusiasts, Seawolf Park is a noteworthy destination. This park proudly displays submarines from World War II, including the massive USS Cavalla submarine and the USS Stewart destroyer, which made 30 Atlantic crossings during the war and later served as a training ship at Pearl Harbor in 1945.

For those seeking thrills, the historic Pleasure Pier houses a small amusement park. This venue offers a variety of attractions catering to all age groups, from exhilarating slides to serene children's carousels. The iconic Ferris wheel graces the seafront promenade, adorned with vibrant lights that illuminate the evening sky.

Seawall Boulevard is your go-to for shopping and dining. Running alongside the Gulf of Mexico beach, this bustling street hosts numerous charming shops and a diverse array of restaurants. Whether you crave a quintessential Texas steak, a hearty burger, or traditional southern seafood cuisine, Seawall Boulevard delivers.

If you arrive in Galveston without a clear itinerary, local assistance is at hand. Duck Tours offer guided excursions of Galveston by both land and water in their amphibious vehicles. These tours offer insightful glimpses into attractions like The Strand Shopping District and Old Town while infusing fun commentary from local guides. Departing several times a day, the tours are just meters away from Pleasure Pier
