Galveston Beach Communities - Sea Isle
Jamaica Beach is a cool 12 mile cruise west down San Luis Pass Road from the 61st Street Fishing Pier, sitting in the heart of Galveston Island’s west end. Founded in the 1960s as a haven for relaxation and recreation, Jamaica Beach, Texas continues to be a favorite retreat for both locals and visitors. Like most beach communities in Galveston, Jamaica Beach has a single street of homes on the beach side of San Luis Pass Road, with the majority of the community sitting on the bay side, including several streets of waterfront canal homes that lead directly out to Galveston Bay. So whether you’re looking for a beachfront vacation rental, or a family friendly home with a boat lift and fishing access, Jamaica Beach truly has something for everyone.
Sea Isle is also home to several restaurants and a convenient local market, Seven Seas Grocery, perfect for any last minute items needed during a vacation stay. However, one of the best things about Jamaica Beach is the community beach access point. Jamaica Beach is one of the few beaches in Galveston where cars and golf carts are allowed to drive and park right on the sand. Other incredible perks of staying in Sea Isle are the community amenities open to locals and visitors, including the Sea Isle community pool, which operates from Memorial Day - Labor Day for a fee, and community fishing pier and tennis courts.
