    Blackdrum fun
    Chris P.

    Amazing area on pelican island, it's pay for the day per person and parking was plenty. Open 24 hours and even with choppy water we caught some black drums. There's a museum on the island we didn't get to check out, but an amazing location, there are spots outside of the park that you can walk thru to find some great spots!

    You have to pay s$6 dollars per car, not per person to park, not such a big deal because basically everywhere else on Galveston you have to pay to park anyway. Fishing is free and no you don't need a fishing license here like you do at the pier. The park itself is actually really clean, which is probably why they have a parking fee for so just anyone can come in and mess up the grounds. They have waste cans situated throughout the entire park for easy access. Lots of clean playground equipment for the kids. Plenty of sitting/picnic areas as well. It's a well-maintained park for fishing and a nice day out. Honestly, the only bummer is that we didn't catch not one fish, but did catch two baby crabs lol crowds were not crazy and we came on a beautiful Sunday on Mardi Gras weekend.

    Seawolf Park is an AOK place to spend part of the day with your family. Tip: There are several spots here where fishing is appropriate. The first thing you'll notice when you get here is that there's lot of space to move around in.  They also have a playground for children :-) If the weather is nice this isn't a bad place to bring a picnic to.  In addition to their outdoor facilities, there are a few port-a-potties and some vending machines.

    The park require 6 dollar parking fee which is a little ridiculous, especially for people come for the navel museum. And if you leave the park trying to get some drink, you can't claim that u already paid the parking fee. They also charge for fishing. It's an island surrounded by water, with palm trees, looks pretty nice.

    I paid $6 for parking and $13 for admission to the ships. I am not going to complain. We are supposed to know the money before your visit. When I paid the admission, the cashier asked me " Are you a military veteran?" I had to say" I am from Japan. I was your enemy. lol. It seemed to me that the park had some military discount. I saw a sign for anglers. The anglers can fish two sharks. Who can catch the shark???? The museum was very educational. The submarine Cavalla was kind of small and narrow. Probably, Americans were not fat. If you are oversized, you may not move inside the submarine. Stewart was a bit bigger. I really enjoyed the views of the Gulf. Overall, $13+$6 was not bad. I want to visit again.

    Seawolf park is a nice little fishing spot to come with your whole family. There are areas to BBQ, fish and a playground for kids. We came on a Saturday mid afternoon. The place was not overly crowded. There are enough areas to choose from to fish starting from the parking lot facing the ocean to the pier with areas to clean and wash your fish. While you fish, children can entertain themselves on the playground with other kids ages 5-11. It's a nice place to come and spend a whole day with your family. During your time, you can see ferries coming and going and other big and small boats coming in and out. Very relaxing and scenic spot.

    Good spot for fishing, watch ships and bringing history alive at the Galveston Naval Museum.

    Had a great first fishing trip. My wife really enjoyed herself the atmosphere was really great everyone was so friendly. We started at about 9 am and fished through 2 pm didn't get to tour the sub but we will next time. Pack a picnic basket they have nice areas for you. Fishermen beware there's rocks all around the area so corks are your best friend on a short leader. Have fun and Good Luck

    Seawolf park is perfect for a picnic, a day of fishing, or for kids to play. The park is very well kept and is a pretty scenic location. There's lots of boats, dolphins, and pelicans to look at for the kids. The play ground isn't fenced in and is pretty close to the water, SO KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON YOUR KIDS. This is a nice safe spot to do some fishing with the family or by yourself.

    I LOVE THIS PARK!! I went here with my cousin dad. This is our "go-to" fishing spot. It was such a nice little getaway. We are still learning the park so we haven't had much luck with fish yet. We came on Saturday at 12:30 and left at 7pm. No luck! It was super windy and cold but we all had so much fun. The sun was in and out and was sooo relaxed. Can't wait till the summer! I would be here more frequently for sure! They are doing construction on the main building here so they have "nicer" flushing porter potties herenin case you need to use the bathroom. Always a good and relaxing time fishing off of their pier. Seen people catch MASSIVE fish here.

    It sucks that you have to pay to park your vehicle AND to fish. That sucks big time. Wayne he was about to pay to fish, but I told him, "No, don't do that, that's not smart!" Thank goodness he listened to me. Galveston is a good island you find some flounder and other salt water fish, however you have to wait a couple of hours. As you are driving towards the park, you will find yourself looking at lots of people who park their vehicles on the side of the road. Some do it to avoid the cost of their car, but others do it for other reasons. On the right side of the park, the water is brackish and it's fairly difficult to fish especially with the rocks and your line getting stuck a couple of times. Overall, the park is OK, but the view is nice.

    Too many people that day keeping the small fish that should have been thrown back. Park is nice though a lil pricey.

    I would give 5 stars if it wasn't for the bathrooms. That's a very busy place to only have porta potties and non working hand wash stations

    Is there a place to buy live shrimp at seawolf park?

    They do have a baitcamp at the park, but I'm not sure if it's cash-only or if they take credit card as well. The availability of bait will vary, though

    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!

    Nice park, we came here looking for new playgrounds and weren't disappointed! See pictures for…read moredetails ;) Kids also enjoyed the playground for elderly - nice when adults can use the playground equipment together with the kiddos Bathroom by the playground, nice paved paths for riding the bikes, some hills, plenty of wild flowers and a very quiet, tranquil atmosphere (at least in the morning) - it's a good park and I'd definitely recommend it!
