Galveston Ferry | Bolivar Peninsula Trip | Texas Beach
Hi my lovely friends, come with me on a trip to Bolivar Peninsula, a half Island close to Galveston, Texas. We boarded in Galveston and we drove our car on top of the ferry. Once you are on the ferry, you can get out of the car and enjoy the beautiful view of the Galveston Bay. The trip from Galveston to Bolivar Peninsula takes about 20 min and is completely free. The ferry does not have a schedule, they drive whenever the ferry is full. So you just arrive at the Galveston port and stand in line until they let you get on the ferry.
Bolivar Peninsula is a census-designed place in Galveston County, Texas, United States. The population was 2,417 at the 2010 census.
Bolivar Area: 48.15 mi
Bolivar Elevation: 9.843

Named after Bernardo de Gálvez y Madrid, Count of Gálvez (born in Macharaviaya, Malaga, Spain), Galveston's first European settlements on the island were built around 1816 by French pirate Louis-Michel Aury to help the fledgling Republic of Mexico fight Spain. The Port of Galveston was established in 1825 by the Congress of Mexico following its independence from Spain. The city was the main port for the Texas Navy during the Texas Revolution, and later served as the capital of the Republic of Texas.
During the 19th century, Galveston became a major U.S. commercial center and one of the largest ports in the United States. It was devastated by the 1900 Galveston Hurricane, whose effects included flooding and a storm surge. The natural disaster on the exposed barrier island is still ranked as the deadliest in United States history, with an estimated death toll of 6,000 to 12,000 people.
Much of Galveston's economy is centered in the tourism, health care, shipping, and financial industries. The 84-acre (340,000 m2) University of Texas Medical Branch campus with an enrollment of more than 2,500 students is a major economic force of the city. Galveston is home to six historic districts containing one of the largest and historically significant collections of 19th-century buildings in the United States, with over 60 structures listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

Galveston vacation march 2011
Austin went with us on vacation in Galveston. We fished 6 interesting places. The jetties, surf fishing, sea wolf park, Texas city dike, marshes, ferry landing. It was great fun and a serious fishing challenge.

This is the fireworks show me and my aunt saw on the beach in Galveston Texas. We were extremely close to the carts they where setting them off on and some of the shrapnel was hitting us so we eventually backed up for the finale.

Galveston Island Beach Restoration
GALVESTON, Texas (August 12, 2015) – A major beach expansion will begin tomorrow in Galveston, representing the largest sand nourishment project to take place on the Texas Gulf Coast this summer.
The project will use 725,000 cubic yards of sand dredged from the Galveston Ship Channel to create 20 blocks of additional beach along the island’s seawall between 61st and 81st streets.
“This is the single largest volume of sand ever placed on Galveston’s beaches,” said Park Board Executive Director Kelly de Schaun. “This project is part of a long-term strategy to build public beaches, protect community assets from storm surges and increase property values on the island.”
The $23-million-project is a collaborative effort sponsored by the Galveston Park Board, City of Galveston and the Texas General Land Office. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District, which routinely dredges the ship channel every 18-24 months, will place the material on the beach in lieu of offshore.
“The USACE Galveston District is excited to partner with the Galveston Park Board of Trustees and Texas General Land Office in order to carry out a dredging project that will benefit channel users and Galveston residents,” said Tricia Campbell, an operations manager with the USACE Galveston District. “While undertaking its mission of keeping America’s waterways navigable, the Corps is able to turn that into an added benefit for the community by placing dredged material (sand) on the Galveston beach for tourists and residents to enjoy. This beneficial use project allows the Corps to work with a cost-sharing sponsor to place dredged material along the coastline.”
Crews will begin working on Galveston’s beaches tomorrow morning with sand placement scheduled to begin Aug. 22. The project will take approximately 60 days to complete. During construction, public access to west seawall beaches between 61st and 81st streets will be limited.
This project is a great example of what can happen when city, state and federal governments work together to accomplish a common objective, said Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush. Dredge material is not only a cost-effective way to nourish a beach, it will help boost Galveston's tourism and protect the seawall.
