Shopping

Galveston has shopping galore! The Strand District has every store imaginable - from antiques and collectibles to art and home furnishings. You will find typical stores like the Sunglass Hut, Bass, Chico's but mainly you will find unique shops to spend your afternoon browsing. One worth mentioning is Colonel Bubbie's - a genuine government surplus store. If you are looking for some Texas trinkets to bring back to your friends and family, then check out the Old Strand Emporium.

For the bargain shopper, the strand has a Bass Outlet, as well as the New York Dress Outlet where you may be able to snag a deal!
