Labor Day weekend is just around the corner and Galveston is gearing up for their big, weekend long celebration!

A man has drowned in Galveston after being caught in a strong rip tide.

A 19-year-old woman from Spring is missing after leaving Galveston’s Pleasure Pier Saturday.

The body of one twin has been discovered in the search for 13-year-old brothers who went missing Sunday while on a trip with family at Pleasure Pier, according to officials.

Need a job or know someone who does?

Galveston is only a hop, skip and a jump down I-45 from Houston. The first thing on your mind: soaking up the sun at the beach.
