About

What to Know

The Galveston Historic Seaport is home to ELISSA, a preserved 1877 sailing ship that still sails on scheduled occasions. The adjacent Ship To Shore experience explores the arrival of immigrants in Galveston during the 1880s, giving the ship visit a broader human story. Check the day's access and ticket inclusions: boarding a docked vessel, a harbor tour, and a special daysail are different experiences. Wear shoes suited to a ship's deck and ask about boarding and below-deck access if mobility or confined spaces are concerns.
