Sea Isle Bay Watch is a Galveston vacation home located on a live water canal and is the second house from the open bay in the Sea Isle neighborhood. Fish all day and night from the yard and enjoy beautiful views of the sunrise and sunset! Seasonal guests have reported daytime and nighttime catches of trout, redfish, flounder, croaker, drum, ladyfish and an occasional gar. Weather permitting, there are water activities to enjoy including swimming or kayaking. The immediate areas around the bay in front of Sea Isle can produce some great catches.
The property includes a concrete ramp kayak launch (see overhead picture with red outline), 2 kayaks with paddles and life jackets, a lily pad, corn hole boards, outdoor seating and an indoor bar area with 50" Roku smart TV, hammock, and 2 individual hanging hammock chairs. There are 4 comfortable chairs around a table large enough for an outdoor lunch or a game of cards and 4 additional barstools for seating outside or inside around the bar top. There are also a few extra chairs stacked in the garage and two Adirondack chairs upstairs on the porch. If you live an active outdoor lifestyle or just want a quiet comfortable stay indoors, there is something here for everyone!
Launch your boat from the community boat ramp at the marina complex or go fishing (day or night) from the community lighted fishing pier. The pier requires a keycard for entry and that keycard is located in the house near the key required for the boat ramp. Sea Isle charges $150/each for keys lost or not returned so PLEASE make sure to leave the boat ramp and fishing pier keys in the house on check out. The house also has a green under water fishing light and a fish cleaning table.
