Boomtown Lake
About 5 minutes East of Beaumont in Vidor is Boomtown Lake. There's a small charge for the day which is probably around $5. Beaumont gets rather hot in the summer, and swimming is a must for everybody that lives here.

Riverfront
Neches river flows just east of downtown, and there is a pleasant park on the riverfront.

    Downtown
    The city has experienced a sudden boom, but it stopped shortly, as most of the oil business has moved to Houston. This has frozen the downtown as if it is 1930, and you can see a lot of interesting art deco buildings.

    Downtown also has an art museum, a concert hall and a firefighters' museum.

    There are 2 main beaches in the greater Beaumont area. Crystal Beache is a major party destination for locals and is patrolled heavily by cops. There are ferries from Crystal Beach to Galveston. This is a much easier way to get to Galveston from Beaumont rather than going through Houston. The other beach is Sea Rim State Park which is about 35 minutes south of Beaumont.

  • Directions: About an hour Southwest from Beaumont.

    Religious Buildings
    The city possesses a great deal of beautiful churches of various denominations. Particularly gracious is the catholic cathedral, modeled on St Peter's of Rome (though a lot smaller of course).

    Southern Architecture
    Beaumont is a great place to see some typical Southern architecture. The city retains a small town atmosphere and style.
