Top 4 Ways to Spend the 4th of July in Crystal Beach

Fireworks on the Beach

It doesn’t get more classic than fireworks on the 4th of July! And better yet, Crystal Beach allows you to set off fireworks on the beach so that you can take in the spectacular colors of your own show while enjoying the calming sounds of crashing waves. A few times a year, you can find firework stands on the beach, or you can head down to one of PyroShack Fireworks’ many locations to pick up your light show! 

Galveston 4th of July Parade

Join locals in cheering on a parade of patriotic floats through Galveston this Independence Day! It kicks off in the evening, so you’ll have plenty of time to fill your day with celebrations before arriving and soaking in the festivities. 

Bolivar Beach Club & RV Resort 4th of July Music Festival

If you’re the kind to look for musical celebrations, look no further than the Bolivar Beach Club! On the 4th of July weekend, they hold a Music Festival where locals and guests alike join together to celebrate our great nation’s rich history through song and dance for 3 nights!
