Hershey Beach

Hershey Beach

Overview: A small West End neighborhood of spacious, beachside single-family homes, many built from 1998– 2002, prized for its quiet feel and two rows of homes with strong Gulf views. Limited turnover and consistent coastal architecture keep it highly sought-after.

 

Location & Access: West End along FM 3005, between Spanish Grant and Sands of Kahala, with sand access nearby at Public Beach Access Point #10 (Pean St.)

 

Schools & Services: Zoned to Galveston ISD

 

Housing Types & Vibe: Modest elevated homes, some with beach cottages, built with coastal preservation in mind.

 

History & Origins: Primary build-out late-1990s into early-2000s as West End demand for beach homes surged.

 

Amenities & Outdoors: Walk or golf-cart to the sand via Beach Access #10; enjoy the West End’s serene shoreline and wildlife, with nature areas and state-park experiences a short drive away.

 

STR Snapshot: Vacation rentals are common in the West End, but always confirm deed restrictions and register STRs with the City of Galveston.

 

Flood & Insurance Notes: Outside the Seawall protection; most homes are elevated. Buyers should review FEMA FIRM zones, windstorm/hurricane deductibles, and flood insurance options for coastal properties.

 

What sets this community apart:

  • Two-row layout with big Gulf views from front or second row
  • Quieter, low-traffic West End location close to town
  • Late-1990s/2000s construction with elevated designs
  • Limited resale inventory keeps desirability high
  • Easy sand access at Beach Access #10
