Seashell Beach Pocket Park 3
Discover Sea Shell Beach Pocket park 3
Seashell Beach Pocket Park #3 is a popular destination for shell collectors and beachgoers alike. Located on the west end of the island, Sea Shell Beach Pocket Park #3 is known for its wide variety of seashells and other marine life that bring the shores to life.
Seashell Beach Pocket Park #3 in Galveston provides visitors of all ages with a unique and enjoyable beach experience. Shelling is a popular activity among many beachgoers, and understandably so since there are some beautiful shells just lying there on the beach. Make sure someone isn’t already living inside before you take it home, however. If they are, promptly return the seashell to their sandy home and find another keepsake. Collecting seashells can be a lot of fun but remember that you are picking up someone’s potential home, food, or survival refuge. The Gulf is a living, breathing ecosystem and since we are going to enjoy it we need to take care of it.
