About West
End
West End, located between Jamaica Beach and San Luis Pass, is a beachside and resort-style Galveston neighborhood with wide Gulf-front sands and low-rise coastal homes. The scene concentrates around the Seawall Boulevard corridor near 61st Street, where surf shops, casual seafood counters, and beach-rental storefronts set a salt-air tempo. Architectural character leans to stilted beach houses, contemporary townhomes, and condo communities oriented to water views and breezy decks. Galveston Island State Park anchors the landscape with dunes, marsh trails, and bayside paddling launches. Moody Gardens adds year-round culture with its glass pyramids, aquarium, and seasonal exhibits. Days often revolve around sand, fishing, and sunset drives along FM 3005.
