It’s National Estuaries Week!
National Estuaries Week highlights the critical role estuaries play in both our environment and our economy. As a point where freshwater and saltwater meet, these ecosystems are essential nurseries for commercial fisheries and serve as natural buffers that protect coastal communities from storm surges and flooding.
Galveston Bay Estuary Program, a program of TCEQ, is one of 28 National Estuary Programs in our country.
Visit gbep.texas.gov to learn about their work and ways you are more connected to Galveston Bay than you might think! by @the_tceq

Get your rods and reels ready! 🎉 The Marisol Boat Ramp, the first free public ramp in 30 years, is here! Funded by Texas RESTORE, it boasts an ADA-accessible dock, parking, and a fish cleaning station. Located on the beautiful Laguna Madre side of South Padre Island, this $3.2 million facility will boost off-peak tourism and support the local boating scene. Let’s hit the water! 🚤🌊
