Houston - Nearby Destinations

Tourist destinations to consider near Houston are listed below. Click on any name for complete information.



Beaumont / Port Arthur Population: 200000
  Southeast Texas' proximity to Louisiana brings a Cajun flavor to the area. Mardi Gras is huge here, influenced by Louisiana Mardi Gras traditions. Eyes pop at the grand costumes and parades; Cajun and Zydeco music is heard throughout the streets. Southeast Texas is also a fisherman's and water sport enthusiast's paradise, surrounded by fresh and saltwater.
     
Central Coast
  In between Freeport and Corpus Christi are a series of small ports where fishing and beaches prevail. Off the beaten path, these peaceful towns don’t have the tourist crush you're likely to find at the larger ports and beaches. Quaint bed and breakfast inns dot the area.
     
Galveston Population: 57000
  Thirty-two miles of beaches, surf and sun make Galveston one of the most popular vacation destinations in Texas—even for Texans. Sailors, surfers, and beachcombers fall into the relaxed, easy island pace, lulled by the water lapping onshore and palm trees bending in the winds.
     
Piney Woods
  Forests abound in the east Texas region of Piney Woods, with about 750,000 acres of National Forests and National Preserves. Piney Woods region runs along east Texas from about Beaumont all the way north to Texarkana, and includes several towns: Athens, Henderson, Longview, Marshall, Nacogdoches, Palestine and Tyler are just a few.
