most consistent wave in galveston. often very crowded. usually a current to contend with but easy paddle out by the pier or the jetty using rip currents.
Overview
Atmosphere
too crowded and too mushy. lots of longboarders and kooks mixed in with good surfers. great place to find a mushy wave in almost any tide. best surf is in the winter during cold fronts. due to beach nourishment in the past few years wave quality has been drastically declining. very mushy waves unless everything comes together perfectly
General
ok spot if you have to deal with it, but not worth a long drive. better off going further south.

Tube time in Texarse
How is it possible that any waves in Texas receive a rating of more than 1. Still...something is definately better than nothing I s'pose. (unless it's polluted)
