1. You misogynist! How can you post such an anit-femine post. Well I can see by your misspelling of "bitches" that you aren't very bright!
2. in galveston there are beaches but they are kind of muddy and are definitely not as nice as CA or FL beaches. there are nice beaches in south padre island, texas though! its really nice there!
3. Yes, we have beaches... Galveston is like swimming in salty chocolate milk. That island is nice to hang out on for a day or two... but as for beaches... not so much. Matagorda Bay is a little better.. the water starts to clear up once you get here. Good fishing if you are in to that stuff... and a little bit better area of beach. Corpus Christi... ehh.. if you hang out in Cali beaches, you will consider Corpus an outhouse... which it is for the most part. South Padre Island... probably the best beach in Texas. The water looks better here and there a lot of little things to do on the island. It's more fitted for tourism though so don't expect lots of room in the summer. The water temp is much higher in the Gulf than in the Pacific. In late summer, with the salt content, it can get kinda gross to swim in because of the feeling.
4. South Padre....better than Miami....remember hurricane season is approaching.....miles of beaches and game preserves....and unfortunately condo's....
