Offering a remote escape off the west end of Galveston, Pirate’s Beach is the perfect spot to get away from the crowds. Situated just past the Beach Access 15a sign, this quiet spot allows you to unwind in peace and enjoy the calming sounds of the crashing waves, since no vehicles are allowed to park on the sand. It serves as a semi-private beach to a number of vacation rentals and parking is available about a block away from the main access point. Remember that there are no lifeguards or public facilities available here.
