Winter Texans
Welcome to Your Winter Home!
Welcome Winter Texans! Now that you’ve escaped the cold winter by heading south, it’s island time! Galveston Island’s tropical climate and breathtaking views of the Gulf of Mexico provide the relaxing escape you’ve been longing for. Yet, you’ll feel right at home with the small town culture and southern hospitality found on this historic island.
Exploring in Galveston is easy to do as the island offers 32 miles of beaches, world-class attractions and adventure opportunities, one of the largest collections of Victorian architecture in the country, a charming historic downtown and plenty of award-winning restaurants.
And, if you’re looking to meet fellow long-stay visitors, branch out to the many Winter Texan exclusive events offered throughout the season. You can learn about these events, special savings and other ways to make your long-term stay in Galveston more enjoyable by stopping by the Galveston Island Visitor Information Center located inside Ashton Villa.
There’s an incredible number of wonderful things to do on Galveston Island that are either completely free of charge or extremely affordable! View our official calendar of events below!
