Finally, a park with the senior citizen in mind! LOVE IT! Today, I took my husband along with his…read morewalker and our dog, Oreo, to Carbide Park in LaMarque, TX. What a nice day! What I loved the most was that my husband was able to navigate a good portion of the park with his walker. We parked in the north lot at first. There was a nice concrete path that led from the north parking lot across a fun bridge and almost down to the area where the senior playground is. The rest of the path was in gravel, which he was still able to navigate with his walker (probably will be difficult for some walkers, but his has four big wheels and a seat). He got plenty of exercise with his walk, resting now and then on his seat! I then left him at the senior playground to wait for me while I walked back, got the car, and drove down to the parking lot there. Then, I had fun using the equipment that was there, including the swing! Fun day, especially since my husband could enjoy it with me. If you have a handicapped loved one and need a fun place to go, try Carbide Park!

We focus on providing you with boats that you can fish from or get into shallow wading water to catch that prize-winning Speckled Trout, Redfish, or one of many other species found on the shorelines or flats in West Galveston Bay. Our boats are equipped with GPS to help you navigate easier, and coolers are on each boat for your convenience. You can also enjoy time with your group tubing or viewing dolphins, sea turtles, or various other land and sea animals, or you can take a boat and spend time just watching the beautiful Gulf Coast sunsets.

Price for live shrimp is a bit more expensive than the competitors, but they did have them available when others didn't. Location is not off the feeder, but you just need to make a right off feeder. Entrance has a ramp going up, but you don't need to go down a ramp as the live wells are on the ground floor. You just need to go up the ramp to pay, head down to get the bait, and then head out around the other side of the building.

We went in and got some amazing pictures. Then a rude person who called himself the Executive Assistant of the Director came out and basically accused us of trespassing. He treated us as if we were interlopers and made it clear that no one can come in unless they are part of an institution and we were not welcome there. We would never have come in if we weren't invited. We're an older couple and didn't deserve to be treated so rudely. We've passed the building a lot of times and now will think of this rude individual and look away in the future.
