Spent the day at Stewart Beach-loved it! There were awesome amenities like showers, restrooms, chair & umbrella rentals, and a playground for the little ones. Great spot for family fun or a chill beach day.
Nice, clear, shower, changing room available, good faces … parking fee $15… I guess this parking fee is keeping unwanted people away from this place … my kids have had a lot of fun.
One of the good beaches in Texas 🏖️🏖️🏖️ Great place for picnic, outdoor volleyball and family outdoor gathering! Clean, waves are neither high or low, water is warm and it has beautiful sunset view.
Stewart Beach in Galveston, near Houston, is a family-friendly beach with clean sand, calm waters, and convenient amenities like restrooms, showers, and picnic areas. It has lifeguards on duty, making it a safe spot for swimming. Parking is available but can fill up quickly on busy weekends. While it’s not the most scenic Texas beach, it’s a solid choice for a relaxed day by the Gulf.
Nice beach and the kids had fun, but my only complaint is that the showers were off. It’s a holiday weekend (kids out for thanksgiving/fall break) and you have people from out of town visiting. There were enough people here that all walked the entire parking lot just to discover that the showers were off. This was the reason we chose this beach - showers! Porta-potties are fine, but the showers are essential for loading up kids back in the car (mostly sand-free) prior to a 5 hour drive back home. Just a suggestion! Thanks.
