Fort Travis Seashore Park
Fort Travis Seashore Park is located on the south tip of Bolivar Peninsula, along the Texas Gulf Coast. This park was once the site of many fortifications - some dating back to 1816. Jane Long, known as the "mother of Texas", defended a fort at the location of the site, in her early twenties. The construction on Fort Travis was completed in 1899.
The sea wall, still present today, was constructed in 1900. The fort was home to troops that defended the Port of Galveston and was expanded in 1942 to station 2,500 troops. In 1949 the fort was dismantled leaving only the seawall. Visitors today to the 60-acre park will see the grassy areas, picnic areas and bar-be-que grills, along with the sea wall. Rest in comfort as a guest of Best Western hotels and enjoy excellent guest services, while traveling in Beaumont area.
