About This Beach
Surfside Beach is a small, laid-back coastal village with 4 miles of clean shoreline less than an hour from Houston. Known for its excellent surfing conditions, it’s a favorite among Gulf Coast surfers. The beach allows vehicles in designated areas and permits overnight camping, creating an accessible and versatile beach experience. The Surfside Jetty Park at the east end provides great fishing opportunities and a playground for children. The community has a small-town atmosphere with several local restaurants serving fresh seafood and beach bars offering sunset views.
