Galveston Island offers everything you are looking for in a permanent residence or vacation getaway: 32 miles of Gulf Coast beach, live entertainment, shopping, festivals, museums, galleries, and special events year-round for full time and seasonal residents alike.
Enjoy strolling through the streets of historic downtown Galveston for unique gifts or stopping to get a cup of coffee at your favorite cafe. Local artists and galleries have a multitude of beautiful, handcrafted pieces that are perfect gifts for yourself or your friends. Treat your guests to a taste of the island at one of dozens of locally-owned restaurants or enjoy a meal at home of fresh Gulf seafood, purchased from the docks that morning. Anchor Bay living makes all of this possible.
