    A great walk along the sea wall. Can hire bikes or have a stroll to the pier. Lots of families and a really nice atmosphere

    Love the Spot! Great place to sit, relax and take in a drink or two. 5 different venues, close to the beach and the Pier.

    Spacious open beach, though some of it was under construction when I was there. Clean and very beachy.

    So much better than being at the house in ghetto trash hell sw houston with satan himself. It's foggy, nice sounding/looking waves, hate to leave, wish I was so much further away from Houston. Peace?!

    Landry's at The San Luis on the seawall is better than most Landry's. Try the Oyster Shack Trash to start and they offer a fab lobster bisque.

    If a dog runs up to you then turns away, don't give up! He may need to build confidence to approach you. Be ready for when he comes back smiling.

    The Seawall needs some remodeling. Some stairs are destroyed and the wall needs some paint.
