Great for Fishing

Rollover Pass, Texas was first used by smugglers that would transfer their loot between the Gulf and Galveston Bay. Their loot was normally packed into the large wooden barrels and they rolled their loot from one side of the bay to the other. So Rollover Pass was very fitting. Now Rollover Pass is mainly used by locals for fishing. Large sand parking lot where they can park, fish, camp, and spend the weekend. There are porta pots and trash containers and you will find the same lots on both sides of the highway. The property is privately owned. There are no signs stating that you may camp but it has been accepted policy for some time. Sand is hard packed.
