Listed by Kathryn Hammond• RE/MAX On The Water -Bolivar
Blue Water, located between Crystal Beach and Gilchrist, is a beachside and laid-back Bolivar Peninsula neighborhood with wide Gulf-front sands and stilted coastal homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bluewater Highway (TX-87) corridor, where bait camps, beach stores, and low-slung seafood counters set a salt-air rhythm. Architecture leans practical and storm-minded—raised cottages, broad decks, and drive-under parking facing the dunes. Days track the shoreline, with walkovers to the beach and long views across the Gulf. Nearby anchors like Stingaree Restaurant & Marina, Fort Travis Seashore Park, and the historic Point Bolivar Lighthouse shape local tradition. The pace stays outdoors-first, with fishing, birding, and sunset drives along the peninsula.
