We arrived first thing right when they opened and had no issues finding a parking spot, i will mention when we left a couple of hours later the parking lot was full with people driving around waiting for people to leave. My kids really enjoyed the aquarium, as did my husband I it was our favorite area to explore. The rainforest pyramid was nice we couldnt find the sloth but saw the monkeys, they was down on the walk way and staff was directing people away from them It was more a one and done kind of place just because it is a little on the pricey side, but we have no regrets and got some amazing photos.

It looked like the first tank you approach was leaking and the smell was truly awful. The seal tank is very small for how many animals were in there and it was milky white. You can't see an inch into that water. Truly saddening to see. There wasn't much to see at this aquarium overall. I think the only area that were good was the jelly fish and the sting ray tan. The sting ray tank extends past where we can see. Over the experience was more sadness than excitement. We got to see real time divers cleaning the tanks. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. But the tanks just looked like sadness.

We played the more difficult course which is certainly challenging, but more experienced players might get lucky and get a few holes in one. Well maintained, no worn carpets or broken edging. Younger players should stick to the easier course. All in all a great experience. FYI there's a shave ice stand next door across the parking lot.

It was a lame that they force everyone to wear life jackets now. My kids had their own but for me and many others it was not fun. I heard a ton of people complaining. A couple of the rides we wanted to ride most were out of order so that was a bummer. And some of the workers were nice but more were kinda pushy and mean.

We were skeptical about coming since we've read so many bad reviews but couldn't pass it up on our trip to Galveston. Ticket prices are decent. Now they have the whole first parking lot as preferred so if you don't want to walk a quarter of a mile, pay the $15 for preferred. We never ride any of the rides. We stay in the wave and rapid river. The wave river was super low. The water was a little over 2 ft so I kept scraping my knees on the ground. The waves were also less frequent and subtle than before. The rapid river was closed along with many other rides due to staffing issues. Very disappointing. I did expect to have tons of people because we went on a Saturday but the park wasn't full. None of the employees knew what was going on when we asked questions. Overall our experience was okay but not close to the same as it use to be.

The so-called manager was sitting there, loudly chewing an apple with her mouth open--super unprofessional. The place felt lifeless, and it was clear that barely anyone comes here. Then came the kicker: $14 per race. For what? A disappointing experience in a rundown facility? The pricing makes zero sense, especially given the lack of atmosphere or any real effort to make it worth the money. Do yourself a favor and skip this place. You'd have a better time playing mini-golf--or honestly, doing anything else. Total waste of time and money!

Late review, but you can use this info to compare to today's prices…read more Admission rates for May 2022: Pier Walk-On Pass (this pass allows you to experience the pier, but not the rides. Rides can be purchased separately.) - $11 (48" and above) - $9 (Under 48") - Children 2 and under, free All day ride passes are also available: - $27.99 (48" and above) - $20.99 (Under 48") - You do not have to purchase the Pier Walk-On Pass with this option, although children 2 and under will need a ticket/wristband to go on rides. A premium paid parking lot is located directly across from the pier, but we chose to hunt for parking instead. Luckily, we found free beach access parking near 33rd Street. Pleasure Pier offers waterfront fun and entertainment with rides, carnival games and souvenir shops. Fries - $5 (Fries weren't even hot! Room temperature at best) Dos Equis beer - $11 Galveston Beach isn't the prettiest. According to what I've read, there's a lot of silt/sediment from the Mississippi River that flows through the area. There is a bacteria monitoring program in place to test the waters frequently and Galveston Beach is usually safe for swimming. Galveston Beach and Pleasure Pier are best experienced in cooler weather.
