Galveston: Things to Do

[Texaslady22]

Due to a weird turn of events, we're going to have 3 days in Galveston before our cruise.

 

3 teen boys

1 pre-teen girl

 

We've never really used Galveston as anything except a cruise port. We spend one night and get on the ship. 

 

What would you recommend to kill a bunch of time the first weekend in March? Bonus if they're not expensive. 😉

We enjoyed the ferry.  We got to see dolphins.  Your experience may vary.
