Galveston Island State Park features three protected paddling trails ranging from 2.6 to 4.8 miles through calm waters surrounded by the park, with seagrass beds and marsh restoration areas. Visitors paddle through shallow bays and coves while observing wading birds, shorebirds, and marine habitat, with opportunities to combine paddling with hiking along Gulf-side dunes and fishing for spotted seatrout and redfish.
