The protected waters of the bayou are ideal for boating and observing wildlife that thrives on and around our barrier island.

Following the water portion of the tour, the Duck returns back onto the streets and returns to the historic East end of the city. Along the way, your Captain will point out various mansions and century-old buildings. Before returning to the point of departure, your tour guide and captain will have given you a general overview of the many attractions and history of Galveston.
