Jamaica Beach

Jamaica Beach is a beach to the south of popular coastal town of Galveston in Texas. It is also known as Karankawa Beach after the local native Indians. This is a great place to escape from the crowds of tourists from Houston, but without a long road somewhere far away. The north end of Jamaica Beach features Galveston Island State Park equipped with camping ground, as well as BBQ tables. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
