GALVESTON – Galveston Island State Park’s beachside reopens June 27 after a series of renovations that began in the summer of 2019.
The Galveston Island State Park Beach Redevelopment project included improvements such as new roads, 95 new campsites, a new park headquarters building, two new changing areas and rinse-off showers, two new restrooms, 20 new shade shelters, and a seasonal equestrian area.
The project was made possible by $10.6 million in Deepwater Horizon Natural Resources Damage Assessment (NRDA) Phase III Early Restoration funds from the Texas Trustees.
