Review & FAQ:

A chilled beer, fresh bait, and a fishing pole is all you need to have a good time at the Galveston's 61st Street Fishing Pier – the best part is that visitors don’t need to take any of that stuff with them, as it’s all available at the pier.

The family fun goes on all night on the pier, and for a small fee, visitors can rent equipment, buy bait, and indulge in delicious pier-side snacks and foods. The pier is open for fishing all night, and it offers a great way to spend the day under the sun or the stars.
