The Galveston Seawall stretches from 9th Street to past 89th, with parallel parking and steps conveniently located. If you are in the habit of bypassing the Seawall beaches because you've seen it get swallowed up when the tide is in, look again! Over the past years, the city has been bringing in sand to widen the beaches between 10th and 61st Streets – as much as 150 feet in places. In the summer, you can rent beach umbrellas and buy concessions.
The Galveston.com Surf Cam is located atop Hospitality Health ER, 43rd and Seawall Boulevard.
