West End
Galveston’s West End is known for its serene landscape, expansive shoreline and untouched wildlife. Visitors looking to unwind in a quiet area with their own private view of the Gulf can rent a beach house, camp on the beach or park their RV for an extended escape. The island’s West End has become a popular location for nature tourism and a birding hotspot with its two major conservation areas, the Coastal Heritage Preserve and the Galveston Island State Park. There is also some interesting history associated with the area, as it is home to the burial site of the Karankawa Indians and the location of the Battle of Three Trees.
