Bolivar is Beautiful and that's not a Ferry tale!

Embraced by the beautiful waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Galveston Bay, the Bolivar Peninsula is a haven for fisherman, golfers, shell seekers, boaters, kayakers, oceanfront gulf cart riding and beach lovers of all ages.

While very popular with summer visitors, the very affordable Bolivar Peninsula is a growing area that is home to a diverse population including young families, retirees, winter texans and working commuters just wanting to escape from the city life.

The gentle breezes from the Gulf of Mexico keep Bolivar cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

The Bolivar Peninsula is a textbook definition for Ecotourism which appeals to the ecologically and socially conscious. Ecotourism focuses on local culture, wilderness adventures, volunteering, personal growth, and learning new ways to live on the planet; involving natural areas that conserves the environment and improve the well-being of local people.
