Galveston is the busiest drive-to cruise port in the country, and the overwhelming majority of its passengers arrive by car from Houston and across Texas. Portside is not at Port of Galveston yet. Join the waitlist, and if you sign up 90+ days before you sail, we'll work to secure you a guaranteed reserved spot near the port and email you the moment one opens.
Port of Galveston in Galveston, TX is served by Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Disney Cruise Line and Princess. On-island parking fills fast on embarkation weekends and off-island lots with shuttles are the norm, so a guaranteed reserved spot matters here as much as anywhere.
Most cruisers reach Galveston by car, driving in from Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Dallas-Fort Worth and Louisiana and across the region. A guaranteed reserved spot with a free shuttle to the terminal means no circling a full garage on embarkation morning after a long drive, which is exactly the problem Portside was built to solve at Port Canaveral.
It is free, and it is how we decide where to open next. Add your details below. If your cruise is 90 or more days out, that gives us enough runway to secure a lot near Port of Galveston and hold a spot for you before you sail.
