Overview
As part of a long-term strategy to be good stewards of the coastal environment while protecting Galveston’s No. 1 tourism asset, the Park Board takes on projects aimed at improving recreational experiences and building memories at Galveston’s beaches, preventing the erosion of Galveston’s shoreline and reducing the long-term cost of beach maintenance. The Park Board uses resources such as the Sand Management Plan and their Master Plans as resource documents in the enhancement of amenities. These projects are also guided by our vision to lead Galveston and Texas in creating a tourist destination that promises an exciting variety of experiences, a high quality-of-life for residents, and wonderful amenities that deliver lifelong memories that make people want to return - and to bring their friends and family.
