Was shocked when I saw this for the first time ever I was 21 when it had happened for the first time and I could see my feet in the deep end it was insane I couldn’t believe it
im tryin to move to Texas for work , and everyone kept hyping up Galveston , it looks so fun but damn for a beach town, the waters are disappointing. I never knew how spoiled i was having Florida beaches all my life.
It's funny when, I prefer the lake-look of the ocean. 😂 Crystal clear feels too...clear or like an infinite pool. My paranoia, spikes being able to see all around myself.
I went to Panama City Florida last year for the first time and I was blown away how the water was so blue and the sand was white and soft. Just sucks we can’t have that kind of thing in Galveston 😢
You also forgot to mention "Environment Texas found 90% of Texas beaches tested positive for unsafe levels of fecal bacteria on one or more occasions." Not to also mention all the illegal dumping, oil run off, manufacturing runoff and just pure carelessness for the environment in our country and most of the world. I used to swim in this water but now I don't even go to Galveston, it's really sad.
For the majority of the fecal problems, it's dogs faults. Ihatedogs yt channel exposes how toxic these mutants are. Their pee ends grass, which is obviously abnormal.
glossing over the industrial waste and fecal matter is the easiest way to make it look like the water is brown from a different reason. It is brown because of poop end of story.
I am an Agronomist, and one thing that is being pushed heavily in farmed areas of the midwest is no-till farming along with wetland restoration and other ways of limiting sediment from running off. There could be a case study made to talk about how if those practices are more widely adopted along the midwest and Texas/Louisiana, maybe water clarity would increase. I also wonder how much the fish and other wildlife would be effected by a change in water quality. Some species thrive in muddy water while others need it clear.
Looks like Charles Barkley brought a lot of people here. Folk searched “Galveston brown water” and came upon this particular video. This video should have over 100,000 views within the next few days.
Brother thank you for your comment I am considering retiring in Galveston and I wasn't sure I would be comfortable (if you understand what I mean, Brother)
I would think most native Texans from our area know all of this. This is a great, informative video for those not hep. We enjoy our brown water but on those clear water days it is spectacular. Big love for our tiny island!
"Looking like a chocolate milkshake in a washing machine" is an AMAZING description of what it looks like most of the times I've been. Thank you for the info! I always blamed it on the oil spill that happened when I was a kid, but I must've just visited on calm days as a child and on turbulent days almost every time afterward.
Yes! I thought that was a great analogy! Yeah, not so much pollution that makes our water that color! Although, that’s always a consideration everywhere these days.
Great video! I wish everyone in Texas could see this video . . . maybe it would change some minds of those who think Galveston's water (and therefore beaches) are dirty.
Yeah! Maybe enough people will share! Already a few thousand views across all platforms that I post on, so maybe we can reach enough Houstonians to change the outlook!
@@davidlane1248there are sites that track bacteria on Texas beach waters. Galveston is not always dirty but due to its proximity to Houston it’s definitely worse than other places such as Port Aransas.
@@galvestonunscriptedI'm a Houstonian, but you didn't need to convince me Galveston beach is better than people say. In fact, you just only explained why it is.
Growing up in deep east Texas, we would take family vacations to Galveston and the water was ALWAYS brown. I've never seen it anything but that, it's crazy how different the color is there compared to the beaches in Florida or something
We vacationed in Galveston last year in the Memorial Day weekend, and the water had a clear, bluish tint to it. It was also the first time I've seen it that since the early 70's.
I'm 83 years old and can tell you that what is written abouts the currents on the Texas Coast is an oversimplification based on sand minerals that no longer get the the same distribution as they once did because all the rivers in Texas are dammed and drop sand and silt before they reach the gulf. The muddy water, on the other hand is caused by clay particles that fall out mostly in deeper sea water. And the direction of the current is seasonal depending upon the wind direction. The Brazos River ran muddy red most of the time from 2016 to 2021. It is again on a rise and is curren carrying 40+ k cubic feet of water per second. It carries muddy water north for most of the spring and summer. We get most of our muddy water in winter all along the Coast from north winds, presumably from the Missippi. And when the Rio Grande floods we get muddy water from it as far north as Galveston.
Good video. I find myself explain this concept often. *But*, we shoudln't ignore that the Mississippi is heavily poluted by agriculture, and Texas beaches often test positive for E. Coli. And occasional you find oil on the beach.
I grew up in South Texas and frequently visited South Padre Island. I had never been to Galveston until my wife took me to visit her family on a vacation there. I was shocked at how brown and muddy the water was. The problem with SPI is distance; it’s just too far for most Texans who could just as easily go to Florida. The Galveston area is convenient. I’m at SPI in my heart.
IF it were just the sediment from 29 different states that would be okay…nothing that we can do about that. However, I can’t help but think of all of the chemicals in the runoffs from all of these states that are also with these sediments. Chemicals would include fertilizers and pesticides from runoff (to name just two) that ended up in the rivers contributing to the Mississippi River sediments. In addition to the fertilizers and pesticides that I mention I can only imagine other contaminants that would be in with the sediments, such as sewage, as an example.
My friend from Chicago told me she went to Galveston for a day with her sister-in-law that lives in Texas and said she didn't want to go into the water because it looked dirty! But I've seen the Mississippi River when I was in Memphis, TN and it looked the same, brown. I'm planning on going to Galveston next April!
I grew up along that coast. When that's all you have, you love it! I remember many days spent jumping into those waves with absolute delight! I moved away from the coast many years ago, and I still long for it. I watch thr Galveston & Bayou Vista cams constantly, because I'm homesick. We took a toad trip down to Galveston last summer and I remember rolling the window down smelling that salt water! I loved it!!
Born and raised Texan. Spent many a time on South Padre. Loved it. But it is dirty. Loads of trash. Little oil globules from natural gulf leakage. Man o wars. Can’t count how many times I was stung. Still I love Texas. Been to Hawaii twice. Water so blue, clear, and warm that when you feel it for the first time it’s a spiritual experience. True story.
Great informative video. I was born in Galveston. We were always told the rivers flow to the ocean and the sand and sediment make the water look murky. We like Surfside Beach over any of Galveston beaches though.
I live in the Dallas area and sure wish we had those amazing white sandy beaches and blue water in Galveston. This video certainly puts a great spin on it though.
Yeah, but it the Galveston beaches looked like Florida beaches you would pay triple for rentals and there would be 10 times the amount of beach goers that there currently is. I don’t mind the brown water. My wife and I go to Galveston for the first week of June every year. We got married on the beach in Galveston on June 9th in 2014 and we do our yearly anniversary trip there every year.
Have explained this to many friends around the country many times, but people are always going to like that clear "blue" water more than the brown water lol.
Which I understand. I'd rather have clear water too. But you gotta set aside desire for the perfect and enjoy the good that you have in your own backyard.
Go west across the Intercoastal canal and you reach Quintana beach. The getties keeps the brown water from moving over. During calm winds, the water is beautiful.
Texas beaches get dumped on a lot and I used to defend them but I remembered growing up in South Mississippi and been to Cali and Florida and the east coast and yeah Texas beaches could use some makeovers
Went on vacation to Florida last summer and always wondered why the water was different from my Texas. I guess this explains why the water looks even dirtier on the Mississippi coast. That water looked horrible. I bet if water was blue along rhe Texas Coast property would skyrocket.
No way would I spend my money in a country that has done so much harm to mine, not to mention your personal safety. Mexico is no friend to the US, they have been misbehaving neighbors for the past 250 years. It’s been over a 100 years since the US has had to remind Mexico they need to behave, we are well overdue for another.
You sort of missed the impact of the Sabine and Neches rivers. While the impact from the Sabine was greatly reduced when they built the Toledo Bend reservoir, both still dump sediment into the gulf through Sabine Pass.
Thanks, mate. When I started working offshore out of Galveston in 2002, I noticed the water became clear and blue X nautical miles offshore. I often wondered why this was the case. Cheers.
Mississippi River, current brings it to bolivar and Galveston. Red tide and oil spills from platforms, add to situation. As a kid Galveston beaches were almost, 2 miles wide. As far about blue water, Bermuda, looks. Like an ocean of windex. Island has white, pink and light blue sand.
The brown water is the reason why the Gulf of Mexico has such great fishing. Also, a good amount of Galveston and Galveston Bay are man made. A lot of work was done to improve shipping and for costal defense.
…few additional points. There has been some major changes to dredging the past few years with regards to where they can discharge the dredging. Almost immediately we are seeing clearer water more consistently. If you’ve ever dropped anchor in the ship channel, which is dug to 40’ deep, you pull up a very fine grayish, sulfur smelling clay. They used to just pump that stuff right over the other side of the jetties. They quit doing it, now our water quality is improving.
Having been born 30 miles South of Galveston , 65 years ago , I already knew this , but watched it anyway and this is why I vacation in Destin Fl. , so I can actually enjoy the Gulf of Mexico , we had a 50/50 chance on the Mississippi River and lost , oh well !
OK, I'll buy that explanation when you explain the reports of fecal matter in the waters off Galveston. Don't mind the sediment, but the fecal matter is a hard pass.

Its sad that schools dont teach this. I learned it in 6th gradem we had a whole 6 weeks of studying rivers, lakes, and oceans.

One major reason is the port of Houston is constantly dredged 24/7. All that mud dredged is dumped and directly affects Galveston's beaches.
