Should We Visit Galveston & Corpus Christie?

We are traveling the Southern US and wondering what Points of Interest there may be in Galveston and Corpus Christie. We have already traveled the southern route through Mississippi and Louisiana heading West.

    Corpus has more, especially if you include Port Aransas and Padre Island where you can drive on the beach and cross over on a TDOT ferry.

    Corpus has the USS Lexington and a wonderful aquarium plus a nice water front.

    Depends. Where are you coming from? Galveston has history and is close to NASA. Corpus has much better beaches and is a stop on the way to the Rio Grande Valley.
