If you’re a dog mom or dog dad, you know better than anyone that a vacation without your dogs has little enjoyment at all. You could be staring at a pretty view, but you’ll be missing your precious pup’s presence, right by your side.
Fortunately, Galveston Island is a dog-friendly vacation spot. When planning for a vacation to Galveston with your pet pooch in tow, there are a few things you might want to consider.
Bone Appetit
Did you know that some restaurants are dog friendly? That’s right. While you munch down on some fish tacos, your best friend can be sitting right next to you (on the ground of course!).
Galveston Island has a few delicious places to choose from that will be perfect for your dog-friendly vacation.
Tipsy Turtle Seaside Bar and Grill
Tipsy Turtle is right on the beach. With a view and a Margarita in hand, you can enjoy the best of Galveston all at your dinner spot. Tipsy Turtle is focused on family-friendly entertainment that comes with mouth-watering food. And if you like music, this is your stop. You can find live music here most nights of the week.
Katie’s Seafood House
Man’s best friend can tag along at more than one restaurant on the beach. If you like seafood, Katie’s Seafood House is a must. If you like fresh, this is the best place to get it. Caught right off the coast in the Gulf of Mexico, their seafood has two stops: the boat it was caught on and your dinner plate. With an ocean view and incredible seafood, you and your dog can enjoy a perfect vacation together.
Yaga’s Cafe
If soul food is your kind of food, you’ll have to make a stop at Yaga’s Cafe. Yaga’s has some of the best American food around with an incredible atmosphere. Our only warning—you may just keep on coming back. It’s a captivating restaurant with a local feel that’ll make your vacation with your dog a perfect memory.
Have a Ball
On your dog-friendly vacation, you’ll want to stop at some of Galveston’s best activities.

Galveston has a ghost and you came to find it. One of Galveston’s best activities is their ghost tours, and lucky for you and your furry friend, it’s a dog-friendly tour. Don’t miss this!

This is one of the most popular activities in Galveston. You and your pup can take a boat tour to watch dolphins, listen to stories about their history, and more.
Stewart Beach Park
One of Galveston’s top ten parks, Stewart Beach Park is a family-friendly, dog-friendly environment. Did we mention that it’s on the beach? This stop is one of the best that you don’t want to miss on your venture for a dog-friendly vacation.
Take a Walk
While there are plenty of activities to do and places to eat, you can also just enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful beaches and parks of Galveston. Whether you play fetch in the sand or on the grass, your pup will love the one-on-one time with you during a beautiful vacation.
