Garie Beach

Where is a good place to fish and have a camp fire on the beach (either in Galveston or Texas City) at night?

I'm looking for a place where I can go fish of the shore and have a camp fire on a beach either in Galveston Beach or in Texas City. There will be a group of 15-20 of us and we are doing this overnight (Midnight fishing and crabbing). Open for any suggestions!

1. Go to this website www.wildtexas.com it tells you where to go and what to do.
2. Call the Galveston or Texas City Mayor's Office, before you have a beach campfire. I have never seen anyone with a campfire. Ask so you don't get a ticket or go to jail.
3. There's always Galveston Island State Park...
4. For both fishing and crabbing, I would suggest either the Texas City Dike or Rollover Pass on the Bolivar Peninsula. As long as it a small campfire, I think you are okay. Both places have bait camps but the ones at Rollover close for the night unless they are busy. If you want to be on a beachfront, seriously consider the Bolivar Peninsula. 32 Miles of beaches you can drive on and campfires are definitely allowed.
5. Freeport beach ...on Bolvair Pen. : Travis Fort, The Jetties,Any pier but no fire. Sea Rim Park in Sabine Pass
6. Crystal Beach. Take the ferry from Galveston to High Island. It's 1/2 mile down on the right side. Have fun!
