Safari Beach Company

Safari Beach Company is a laid-back tiki bar at 910 Avenue M in Galveston, just off the seawall, known for its unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico. The dive-bar atmosphere comes with a retro CD jukebox stocked with blues, classic rock and old-school country, a pool table, and an easygoing mix of locals and visitors. Safari Beach Company is the current, correct name for the tiki bar at this address; some directories still carry it under an older name. For riders working the Galveston seawall route, it's a straightforward stop for a cold beer or cocktail with a water view rather than a full meal - the kitchen has been phased out, so it's a drinks-and-atmosphere spot rather than a dinner stop. It sits close to the Strand historic district and the other seawall bars, making it easy to fold into a longer stop on the island.
