A 40-acre waterfront area with rides and entertainment for the whole family.
Reviewed By 704CarolinaGirl84 - Alexandria, Virginia
This boardwalk is smaller than most that I've been too but it's the perfect get away to escape the hustle and bustle and keep the kids entertained. A few theme park type rides, train for the smaller ones, plenty of restaurants, small aquarium, and the area is peaceful overall.

Don't waste your time going to the other seafood markets and just go straight to Rose's. They have the best selection of fresh fish, shrimp, oysters, and crawfish, when in season. Their freezer section is great as well for frozen swai, catfish, and lots of different crabs and crab legs. Customer service is fast and friendly. We love this place and we come here often.

Reviewed By m0ssy0ak - Baytown, Texas
I found this place driving by in the area. We had a good time. The atmosphere is amazing. Smells like fresh coffee. The decor fits the theme. You have several options. We went to a mystery and dessert. It was delicious. Perfect evening for kids 12 and over because you work in teams. Lots of reading to solve the clues. I recommend for birthday parties, family outings, date night or even for work team building activity.

7. Duo Winery & Cider Co.
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 8 reviews
Reviewed By Tump01 - Houston, Texas
Dropped by this recently opened wine and cider bar on Dickinson Avenue on a Saturday night. Well lit parking lot had plenty of parking. Inside was large and modern but still felt comfortable and cozy. A friendly Labrador mix acted as the greeter and Raquel made us feel right at home. 7 tastings for 5 bucks was a pleasant surprise. All we tried were impressively good including a tasty mulled wine (at room temp). My wife tried and liked the ciders, too. We left with 2 bottles of the mulled wine ($10 each) and one bottle of the Honey Peach ($9). Plan on going back when they have live music scheduled.

We checked this fun place out on Saturday, not expecting a lot. Boy, we're we suprized at what we found.
All employees there are very congenial and know their business. The entire establishment is super clean, including their restrooms. Lots of game machines, some of which vend tickets for redemption towards toy items.
Nice party sections that will work perfectly for the average party. With several different party options too. It's a deal and we are going to strongly consider child's parties here.
Good going, guys...

Expensive for the experience, but an experience you should do atleast once. They let you feed the rays 4 fish, with instructions everywhere. Very frightening at first. but really cool to do. Other exhibits in the area where really bad.
10. Linh Son Buddhist Temple
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6 reviews
Reviewed By danny w - Galveston, Texas
I've been visiting and watching this shrine for quite a few years. It's grown from a small meditation hall with some basic landscaping into an elaborate temple and outbuildings with beautiful statuary and iconography. The main temple is rich in colors and accessories, and yet calming and peaceful.
The grounds have become lush with an incredible variety of plants, bushes, and trees. And there is a wide variety of statuary among the shrubbery, and a large sleeping Buddha. The turtle pond is my favorite place to just hang out.
One explanation is needed: you will see a certain insignia on some statues and the meditation hall. Don't freak out. It's an ancient line drawing representing a bird in flight (look closely with your imagination) and the messenger who takes our prayers and meditations to the heavens, and good karma back to us. It's a sign of blessing, nothing else.
If you're in the area, its worth a stop, but be alert--it's set back from the road (north side) and partially hidden by the vegetation.
