Galveston parking

What are the other options for parking in Galveston? Thanks!January 10th, 2006 10:20 AM

 

I understand there are several hotels/motels that offer parking if you stay the nite before. We will be coming a day early and can't decide. Have heard pros & cons for both.

We are probably just going to stay with some family in Houston on Friday night and then drive in on Saturday morning. One of the posts I read said that getting to the ship and actual parking was really bad. How early can we check-in? Is there parking at the pier? Any idea the rates and security?

Getting to the ship and parking is a breeze assuming there's not a holiday event such as Mardi Gras. Sometimes an especially warm sunny day can increase traffic on I-45.

Boarding usually begins about 12:15. I wouldn't arrive too early. The wait area in the terminal is uncomfortable and without snack bars, etc. It's more like a warehouse.

 

Disembarking traffic around the piers, however, is often a nightmare. Only thing to do is grin and bear it.
