I can’t fairly give this place a bad review because I didn’t get past the checkpoint. They want $12 just to walk on the pier without going on any ride. A real RIPOFF !!! Greedy Greedy Greedy !!! From all vantage points I can see nothing interesting or unique about this attraction. I recommend an all out boycott 👍🏾

Excellent spot to hit up when on vacation in Galveston! Everyone is friendly and helpful, only one ride was down while we were there but that didn’t seem to bother the kids. Pricing similar to bigger parks if you do “individual“ ride passes, highly suggest the full day ride pass. Also the arcade cards allow you to play all the outside games as well. Beautiful 60+ degree day here on New Year’s Eve!

Very clean and spacious. Parking is not hard to find and the size of Galveston makes everything walkable distance. Friendly staff and very helpful. All rides are a blast and had minimal wait time. Overall a great place to take family over the holidays or breaks.

Such a beautiful getaway from Fort Worth! The weather turned out great, and watching surfers with the ocean breeze was amazing. We biked, walked along the beach, and stopped by local coffee shops — one of our favorite travel rituals. Galveston Island was the perfect spot to relax and recharge!

Prices may vary on weekends, weekday and on rides as well. They will give you bracelet and you can get for a 1 time or all day pass. They have different food place, drinks and rides for kids and adults. Parking can get challenging and have to walk a lot. I would prefer to go in evening, you will feel nice cold breeze and at night it will feel really good. At the end of the pier it will be nice breeze and colder weather.
