Theme Parks in Texas: what to expect
Texas has 5 theme parks we would happily take our own kids to. Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier is the one most families start with. Ride roller coasters and a Ferris wheel that hang right out over the Gulf of Mexico. Morgan's Wonderland is the other name that comes up again and again. A fully accessible San Antonio theme park where kids of all abilities play side by side. SeaWorld San Antonio rounds out the pick of the bunch. Orcas, roller coasters, and in-water dolphin swims meet at this San Antonio marine park. Also worth your time: Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags Over Texas.
Published prices run from $30.99 at Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier up to $59.99 at SeaWorld San Antonio. 2 of the 5 listed here quote a starting price. The others vary by season or by what you add on, so check before you travel. Age guidance is worth reading first at Morgan's Wonderland (ages 2-12).
The theme parks on this page are spread across San Antonio (3), Galveston (1) and Arlington (1), so it is easy to pair two into one trip.
