Boliver Roads - Galveston

Bolivar Roads is a shipping lane with a depth of 45 feet and a width of 1.5 miles located between Galveston Island and the Bolivar Peninsula in Texas. The deepwater access provided by Bolivar Roads is vital for the Port of Galveston, which is one of the busiest ports along the Gulf Coast of the United States.

This East end of Galveston Island is home to seagulls and pelicans often soaring overhead, searching for food in the bay. And if you're lucky, you can stand on the rock groin and watch them stop for a rest.
