    You have to buy a beach pass now, but it's like $10 and is good for a year.

    Jamaica Beach was one of my absolute favorites! Glad you got to go on the fairy as well. I know the water isn’t a pretty blue like you may expect, but it’s a hell of a beauty on its own. Cheers on your future endeavors!

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  6 років тому

      Yes, vans are much easier to get away with parking, that’s why I picked a van instead. But make sure to get a high roof so you can stand inside

    Not sure where you went in Galveston where there were no beach camping spots but there’s over 20 miles of free beach camping west of Galveston going towards Surfside on the Brazoria County Beach, or Aka Folletts Island. If you want further down head toward Bryan Beach park opposite side of Surfside. There’s entrances to the beach area that don’t require entrance into the beach park. The point is to get to the drive on beach and there again are miles and miles of free beach camping. These areas are always WAYYYYY less crowded than Bolivar Flats.

    Please tell me that the Mad Dog 20/20 I saw on the kitchen counter at 6:15 wasn’t used to season your eggs 🍳. 😂 J/K
    Great video. Galveston Texas is beautiful. I’m sure that beach stays packed in the summertime so you guys got out there before the busy season hit.
    Be safe on your trip to New Orleans. Can’t wait for the next video. 👍🏽 #VanLife

    What a great spot to camp on the beach! Did you swim in the ocean? Or make a campfire? I would have loved to have some seafood, while looking at the ocean...

    • @AlexanderTravelbum
      @AlexanderTravelbum  6 років тому +1

      We did swim! I didn’t get footage of it though. We swam for a good while. We didn’t get to have seafood but we had a couple good meals and snacks on the sand

    Your b-roll is getting REALLY really good man! Keep up the great work as always, we've heard of Galveston but had never been.

      Alexander Travelbum I sent that before you said you were heading to new Orleans cause I think the south Padre Island's are kinda out of the way to new Orleans but still go check it out if you can if you come back though Texas

      I grew up in Sunnyvale. Moved to Texas in 2005 and love it. Some members of my family refuse to visit Texas or anywhere in the flyover for that matter. They’re missing out on a lot of incredible experiences.
