Vanlife | Camping on an Incredible Beach in Texas (For Free)

Vanlife | Camping on an Incredible Beach in Texas (For Free)

Camp on a beach for free in your van…In Texas? We found an incredible beach where you can stay in your van on the sandy beach, where you won’t be bothered, it’s free, and there are no reservations. Watch this vanlife travel vlog to find out where it is, and how to find it. Galveston is a city on the gulf coast of Texas. It’s close to this spot where we found the Bolivar Flats on the Bolivar Peninsula and you can camp wherever you want on the sand. Free camping in your van, RV, tent, etc. This is what vanlife is all about. Galveston, Bolivar Peninsula, Texas.

    That is an amazing camping spot! My ideal location, love that it is right at the beach!

  2. Dave Rudolph on November 29, 2022 at 9:07 am

    Gut-check time leaving a beach like that! Safe trip to NOLA.

  3. phan huang on November 29, 2022 at 9:08 am

    Amazing to camp.

  4. Tim Loomis on November 29, 2022 at 9:09 am

    Just left there about 4 weeks ago . Go south through Galveston across a $2 toll bridge and the beaches are free again. Then on down to mustang island or north padre also free….

  5. ChelseaLea on November 29, 2022 at 9:09 am

    I live an hour away and my first time there I got a virus for 3 months 😭

  6. Glenchilada on November 29, 2022 at 9:11 am

    You have to buy a beach pass now, but it’s like $10 and is good for a year.

  7. Lost On Land Again on November 29, 2022 at 9:13 am

    What a lovely beach

  8. Mia Navarro on November 29, 2022 at 9:13 am

    Are there showers or bathrooms nearby?

  9. John David on November 29, 2022 at 9:14 am

    That spot seemed almost too good to be true…..but Dude….MD 2020? I once thought that chit should be illegal. Ha. Stay safe.

  10. RxckIxss on November 29, 2022 at 9:15 am

    Jamaica Beach was one of my absolute favorites! Glad you got to go on the fairy as well. I know the water isn’t a pretty blue like you may expect, but it’s a hell of a beauty on its own. Cheers on your future endeavors!

  11. Arbitrary Exploration on November 29, 2022 at 9:16 am

    That is an amazing camping spot! My ideal location, love that it is right at the beach!

  12. srad on November 29, 2022 at 9:16 am

  13. John McEntire on November 29, 2022 at 9:17 am

    Some of that mad dog 20/20 lol

  14. Mia Navarro on November 29, 2022 at 9:17 am

    Is it overnight camping? I read online that you can’t stay overnight

  15. Christina Denton on November 29, 2022 at 9:18 am

    Hey what happened to your NM hat?! Haha j/k. I lived in Texas when my husband was in the army and we often went to Port Aransas. It looks very similar to where you guys went. Have fun on your next adventure and I can’t wait until the next video!

  16. VANESSA’S VANLIFE JOURNEY on November 29, 2022 at 9:24 am

    *i need to visit this beach*

  17. Bethany Pyles on November 29, 2022 at 9:29 am

    Love the spontaneous decision to move on from something comfortable. Good vibes Sandra!

  18. random nomad on November 29, 2022 at 9:29 am

    You like glavastine if you can you should look into the south Padre Island’s good video by the way

  19. Adam – Citizens of Everywhere on November 29, 2022 at 9:32 am

    Your b-roll is getting REALLY really good man! Keep up the great work as always, we’ve heard of Galveston but had never been. Thanks for showing it off, the beach is way more beautiful than we anticipated. Can’t wait to do our US tour after we finish overseas. Thanks for being such an inspiration Alex! Have fun!

  20. Mimi on November 29, 2022 at 9:33 am

    Not sure where you went in Galveston where there were no beach camping spots but there’s over 20 miles of free beach camping west of Galveston going towards Surfside on the Brazoria County Beach, or Aka Folletts Island. If you want further down head toward Bryan Beach park opposite side of Surfside. There’s entrances to the beach area that don’t require entrance into the beach park. The point is to get to the drive on beach and there again are miles and miles of free beach camping. These areas are always WAYYYYY less crowded than Bolivar Flats.

  21. Daniel Stevenson on November 29, 2022 at 9:37 am

    Told you sandra is smart!

  22. jessica balderas on November 29, 2022 at 9:38 am

  40. Antonio Bridgeforth on November 29, 2022 at 9:53 am

  42. 1WhiteCottage Life on November 29, 2022 at 9:55 am

    What a great spot to camp on the beach! Did you swim in the ocean? Or make a campfire? I would have loved to have some seafood, while looking at the ocean…

  43. Jeffrey Wachtel on November 29, 2022 at 9:55 am

    Cool Video, Cool Couple, Cool Camper and did I already say Cool Video! Loved it! As another poster said…loved the vibe!

  45. Kendall Robin on November 29, 2022 at 9:55 am

    I just can’t believe people referred you to Galveston of all places to go to a nice Beach if you want to see a nice Beach and texts go to my hometown Port Aransas

  46. farzana on November 29, 2022 at 9:58 am

  49. Al Spaulding on November 29, 2022 at 10:03 am

    Please tell me that the Mad Dog 20/20 I saw on the kitchen counter at 6:15 wasn’t used to season your eggs 🍳. 😂 J/K
    Great video. Galveston Texas is beautiful. I’m sure that beach stays packed in the summertime so you guys got out there before the busy season hit.
    Be safe on your trip to New Orleans. Can’t wait for the next video. 👍🏽 #VanLife

  50. Spacey Stacey on November 29, 2022 at 10:04 am

    Been watching a lot of van life, exploring, videos and I noticed a lot of the hot chicks in them are a little annoying, and not as smart as the guys, but Sandra seems smarter. I feel like she’s one of the cooler down to earth hot chicks on YouTube, watching your videos has been enjoyable thanks
