   I’m not sure about boat rides, etc. But you must visit the Strand!

   The Strand is a good place to visit — shopping, eating, people watching

   Schlitterbahn is cool.

   There is SeaWolf park near Galveston — the USS CAVALLA (WWII Submarine) ; the USS STEWART (destroyer escort – one of only 3 in the world); a Fishing Pier; and a Playground.

   You can tour the tall ship, Elissa, and the Texas Seaport Museum at Pier 21.

   There are TONS and tons of fishing and bay cruises, just search for one.

   http://www.galveston.com is a good source for things to do in Galveston.

   You can tour the mansions on Broadway and of course there’s always Schlitterbahn!

   There’s Schlitterbahn (sp). There is a drive-on ferry you can (hopefully you still can) ride, gift shops, etc.

   You might find more at their website:
