Ocean Shores (legally recorded as Ocean Shore Addition Sec. 1) is a small Crystal Beach neighborhood on the Bolivar Peninsula with quick, easy access to the drive-on Gulf beaches via the cross streets off Hwy 87.
It’s a laid-back coastal area with a mix of vacation homes and year-round residents, popular for quiet beach time and fishing.
The subdivision dates to the late 1970s and has continued to build out over the years.

Tip for guests: This beach does require a parking permit if you plan to drive and park on the beach.

Walk or bike to the beach in minutes. For quick runs, a golf cart is the move—licensed driver only, cart plate required, and stick to roads 35 mph or under (you can cross Hwy 87, just don’t drive along it). Carts and cars are allowed on the beach; if you’re driving a car/truck, grab a Bolivar Beach Parking Sticker in town. On the sand the speed limit is 15 mph, no glass, and please keep off the dunes.
Heading to Galveston? The ferry is free and 24/7—check wait times before you go. Rideshare is hit-or-miss out here, so plan ahead if you’ll need a taxi or shuttle. During busy weekends, add a little buffer time and you’re golden.
