Along Seawall Boulevard in Galveston, Texas, is a strip of crab shacks, hotels, and tourist attractions that draws visitors and beachcombers. The commercial strip is noisy, but walk across the boulevard and down to the beach, below the island's seawall, and you'll find a sandy strip of nature abutting the Gulf of Mexico. Any residual traffic and city noise washes out into the sounds of the surf pounding this giant sandbar.
