Choose your pace at Crystal Beach
Blissful days on the beach come easy here. Locals and vacationers alike are often seen on the sand from the early hours, some hunting for shells and others hoping to add to their collection of sea beans and shark teeth. Tidal treasures aside, Crystal Beach offers a range of activities, from boogie boarding to sandcastle building. If you're keen to haul in the catch of the day, you can do so right at the water's edge or at the nearby North Jetty. Barbecuing your catch on the beach serves up the perfect end to a perfect day.
Family fun at Crystal Beach
If the beach isn't an all-day event, there are plenty of ways to add a little variety to your vacation. Challenge the kids to a round or 2 at the Gulf Range, an 18-hole mini-golf course that celebrates all things Lone Star State. Cool down afterward with a trip to the Fun Town Water Park, where 2 giant slides and a lazy river offer up endless fun over the summer. And, for a culture fix, squeeze in a trip to historic Fort Travis, where the views of Bolivar Point Lighthouse from atop the fort's bunker are nothing short of memorable.
Visit Crystal Beach all year round
With a pleasant climate all year round, there's never really a bad time to set up camp in a Crystal Beach vacation rental. The summer months of June through September serve up temperatures in the 80s Ñ perfect if you're dead set on showing off a glorious tan when you get back home. Over the winter months of December through February, temperatures drop to around 50 to 60 degrees, still plenty warm enough to enjoy strolls along the beach, crabbing with the kids and trips to the museums along the coast.
Natural delights near Crystal Beach
With almost 30 miles of Bolivar Peninsula coastline on the doorsteps of Crystal Beach vacation rentals, a vacation here is a real treat for nature lovers. At either end of the peninsula, the Anahuac Wildlife Refuge and the Bolivar Flats are sanctuaries for everything from pelicans to crested caracara. For a chance to catch sight of dolphins playing in the bay, you can take a trip to Galveston on the free ferry, and while you're there, head to Moody Gardens to see the free-roaming monkeys at the Rainforest Pyramid or simply relax on Palm Beach, the city's only white-sand beach.
