High UV Alert: SPF 50+ recommended from 1 PM-2 PM (UV Index 7)
Sunny Beach in Galveston offers a unique drive-on experience, allowing visitors to park directly on the sand. While popular with families and pet owners, it lacks amenities like showers and consistently clean restrooms. The beach itself is generally clean, although seaweed and litter can be a problem depending on the day and the water clarity varies. The atmosphere is variable, ranging from quiet and peaceful in the morning to lively and potentially crowded in the afternoons.
