2. Big Reef Nature Park

Thanks to Galveston's efforts in conjunction with the US Fish and Wildlife Department, visitors can enjoy Gulf Coast nature at its best at Big Reef Nature Park, a smaller component of East Beach. Bird-watchers will definitely appreciate the multitude of coastal birds that frequent the area, including jaegers, Northern Gannets, a variety of gulls, and plovers. Big Reef also offers The East Lagoon Nature Trail, a pristine tidal marsh with local vegetation and wildlife.   (© 10Best)
