What to do and see in Galveston, Texas (TX): The Best Gear Rentals

October 18, 2021 Randal Brittian

More than 30 miles of beaches plus a wealth of cultural and historic institutions make this island a Gulf of Mexico vacation hot spot. If you go, don't forget your walking shoes: With 14 museums and 20 art galleries, plus several historic homes and mansions, there's a lot of ground to cover. Armchair pilots will love the Lone Star Flight Museum and those with more of a nautical interest can check out the Texas Seaport Museum. Families will enjoy the many child-friendly attractions, including Moody Gardens, with its replica of a tropical rain forest. It's easy to get caught up in all the activities, but don't forget to spend some downtime in the sun and on the beach.

Jungle Surf Rentals

Jungle Surf Rentals is a unique family oriented rental facility. Our main attraction is the family style Surrey bike and we are home to the only 3 bench Surrey on the island which can accommodate groups up to 10. We also have beach cruisers, fat tires and tandem bikes, surfboards, boogie boards and kayaks. We are not just rentals either! You can come and relax, enjoy a beautiful ocean view while listening to music, cooling off with our misting machine and dining at our Snack Shack. We have snow cones with a flavor station that you get to put the flavors on yourself, hot dogs, funnel cakes, turkey legs, corn dogs, corn in a cup, chop beef, ice cream, churros and many more tasty items! We have free parking and a shower for our guests to rinse the sand off (we make this available even if you don't rent with us). When down on the east end, just look for the colorful spinning windsock!
