Bucket Brigade

Bucket Brigade Interpretive Beach Tours are FREE for the public, last approximately 45 minutes, and are offered at Stewart Beach in Galveston, Texas.

Join the Bucket Brigade in exploring the creatures and features that make Galveston beaches unique! There is more to the Sargassum and turbid water than many people think, and there is much more to be found on the beach than just sand. Tours are educational and fun for ocean-lovers of all ages. Hands-on activities investigate topics including Galveston’s turbid water, marine debris, Sargassum landings, and more!

To inquire about becoming a Bucket Brigade Volunteer Interpreter email Karissa Laffey, Educator Coordinator, at Klaffey@artistboat.org.

Tours are offered Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day 2019, with several tour times each day.

Look for the bright orange shirts near the Beach Patrol Tower #6 at Stewart Beach.

Tours are scheduled to start at 9:30am, 10:30am, 11:30am, 1:30pm, 2:30pm, 3:30pm and 4:30pm.

In June and July tours are available Wednesday-Sunday, weather permitting. Starting in August, tours are offered Friday-Sunday.
