Top Ghost Tours in Galveston

Galveston was once one of the largest port cities in the United States. After the great hurricane of 1900, the town needed to rebuild itself and find a new identity in which to thrive. Today this charming beach town is found on Galveston Island, surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston Bay. It’s known for its sunny beaches, eclectic bars and restaurants as well as fascinating historical architecture. Galveston is more than just a party destination (although that’s high on the list of attractions!) Amidst its rainforests and harbor experiences, the city has a thriving art community and is known for outdoor activities such as biking, running and swimming.
