Why visit Galveston without experiencing a few of its pleasures? Add a little more fun to a vacation by exploring Galveston Island pre-or post-cruise.

Exploring Galveston Island is a natural addition to a cruise vacation. Carnival Cruise line offers 4, 5 and 7-day getaways while Royal Caribbean offers 7-day seasonal cruises. With two major cruise lines offering multiple Caribbean cruises from Galveston, many vacationers enjoy excursions on Galveston Island before or after their voyage.

From the decks of the cruise ships, passengers can easily see the charming Historic Downtown District just one block from the cruise ship terminals on Harborside Drive. The 36-block district offers more than 100 shops, restaurants and galleries housed in beautiful Victorian iron-front buildings. The area is also home to the Texas Seaport Museum, 1877 Tall Ship ELISSA and the Ocean Star Oil Rig Museum. Don�t miss the Great Storm documentary film shown every hour at Pier 21 Theatre above Willie G�s restaurant.

Bargain shoppers will be pleased to discover that many shops in the downtown district offer discounts to cruise ship passengers (simply present your cruise credentials as proof).
