Begin 2024 with a sunrise walk on the beach at Galveston Island State Park!
Ring in the new year by taking a beach sunrise walk with a ranger! This is a great way to set an intention of getting outside and getting some exercise. Join people all across the nation as we hike on New Year's Day and help us ring in the new year!
This walk has very little shade, so hats and sunglasses are highly recommended. Plan ahead - you will get sandy. All ages welcome, including your canine companions.
- Bring: Sunscreen, bug spray, water, weather appropriate clothing and beach appropriate shoes.
- Meet: Beachside day-use by the turtle statue
- Cost: Entry fee is $5 for adults and FREE for children 12 & under. Park entry free with a State Parks Pass. Since this program begins before our office opens to the public, please use our self-pay station to check in.
*Events and programs subject to cancellation due to weather. Please contact park staff for more information and further updates.
