Seawall Trolley (Moody Gardens ↔ Stewart Beach)
The whole tourist coastline for a dollar — the best sightseeing deal on the island.
Ride this if: you want the beach day without moving the car, or the kids need a "ride" that is also transportation.
The route
Runs the length of Seawall Boulevard along the Gulf, connecting Moody Gardens on the west to Stewart Beach on the east — past the Pleasure Pier, the rock groins, and every beachfront patio in between.
