Spot guide

Galveston Seawall is an SE-facing beach break in Galveston, Texas, United States. It picks up swell from E to SSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 50% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NW: light winds or NW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SE onshores chop it up.
