“Fishing”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 24, 2012 NEW

You can walk along the pier & see the replica of an old pirate ship called The Black Dragon & take a cruise on it. People fish from the pier & there are cleaning stations to clean your catch. More

The pier is very long and has great views of the gulf. Good for photo's and fishing. Also in good area as you can park your car, walk on the pier and then look around shops or eat in one of the many cafes around. More

“Greatest Fishing Pier on the coast of Texas.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 31, 2011

We love this pier. You can fish 24 hours, bring your own pole or rent one from them, buy your bait, drinks, snacks, etc. People even bring their kids and put down pallets so they can sleep while mom and dad fish. It's wonderful, and we will always come back. More
