Explore Historic Downtown Galveston. Take a stroll through Historic Downtown Galveston and visit The Strand for an intriguing selection of shops, restaurants, museums and more. Be sure to visit the interactive pirate museum Pirates! Legends of the Gulf Coast and then stop by the old-fashioned sweets shop La King's Confectionery for freshly made saltwater taffy and ice cream. Postoffice Street is a great destination for visiting art galleries and antique shops. Grabbing a cup of coffee at MOD Coffeehouse or stopping by The Grand 1894 Opera House for a self-guided tour is also a treat.
