Capt. Hal Newsom’s Airboat Tours

About

Discover the unspoiled beauty of Galveston Bay on board the Gator Getter, a one-of-a-kind 450 horsepower airboat.

On this trip of a lifetime, you’ll be face to face with marine life such as stingrays, fish, sharks and alligator gars; and you’ll soar along with some of the most beautiful marsh birds in the Coastal United States.

Want to go bowfishing and floundering at night? All you need is your fishing license and a camera, because all the equipment you’ll need is supplied.

Captain Newsom’s master captains are CPR and First Aid certified, as well as Coast Guard licensed and certified. They take every necessary step to make sure you have a safe and enjoyable experience.

Tours by reservation only. Open year-round. Boarding at Jamaica Beach, please call for instructions. Please dress comfortably. Guests must provide own drinks, snacks, ice chest, insect repellent, and fish cleaning supplies. Gift certificates available.
