Houston is the biggest city in Texas and the core of the Houston, Baytown and Sugar Land metro area. Houston, famous as The Space City is home to Mission Control Center for NASA at the Johnson Space Center. Houston is near the Gulf of Mexico with four significant bayous running through the city. Buffalo Bayou runs through downtown and The Houston Ship Channel’s three tributaries – the White Oak Bayou, Braes Bayou and Sims Bayou that empty into the Gulf. With a hot summer heat index Houston residents and visitors take advantage of the proximity to the Gulf Coast and its beaches.

Texas beaches along the 624 miles of the Gulf Coast are open and sizzling with activities this summer. Potential impacts of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill are monitored closely and all Texas Gulf beaches and water are open for fun in the sun and sand. Don't let summer go by without a visit to your favorite beach.
