While staying at The GRAND SEASCAPE you don’t have to venture far out to sea to see these beloved marine creatures. Dolphins often swim through Galveston Bay and are easy to spot on wildlife-watching outings from Pier 21.
But If you are looking for something fun to do with the family check out:

One of the most popular Galveston dolphin tours, the Historic Harbor Tour and Dolphin Watch, is managed by the Galveston Historical Foundation. Board the Seagull II, a twin-engine motor boat, for a fun cruise that lasts about an hour with a handful of departures throughout the day.
The outings offer an up-close view of the Galveston Harbor as you coast along in search of sea life, including bottlenose dolphins, with an expert tour guide. On board, you can shelter from the sun on the covered main deck or climb to the upper deck for open air and 360-degree views.
This tour is one of the best options for families with young kids touring Galveston, with children under five riding for free. The excursion runs year-round (with the exception of some holidays), and you can also book private charters for an exclusive experience.
