After a hectic morning of sightseeing, Kempner Park is the perfect spot to kick back, rest your weary legs and have a bite to eat.

Kempner Park is an interesting place to begin discovering Galveston. This recreation and green space is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Set aside time for other attractions like Galveston Schlitterbahn Waterpark, Moody Gardens, and Grand 1894 Opera House to really experience what the area has to offer.
