Crystal Beach, TX
The best restaurants, activities, and events on the Bolivar Peninsula. Everything we recommend to our guests staying at Alright Alright Alright and Riviera Paradise.
A Beach Town That Feels Like a Secret
Crystal Beach sits on the Bolivar Peninsula, just a ferry ride from Galveston. It's quieter than the big Gulf towns, and that's the point. Both of our properties here are beachfront with private pools and direct Gulf access, so your days can be as packed or as lazy as you want. When you do head out, here's where we'd send you.
