I was at sylvan beach pier yesterday and spoke with one of the electrical contractors. He said they are putting the final touches and would be finished that day, however he did not know when they would officially open. The pier looks 100% complete with lights and everything so it Is probably any day now. FYI that pier is open until 10:00 pm.

Located Hwy 146 off of Fairmont Exit, La Porte Texas

Can't miss it as Fairmont dead ends into the Galveston Bay.

Should be a good spot for Crabbing in the evenings with the lights turned on in August.
A lot of bait fish there seen people catch some monster reds there. I have caught a few 20 -25 pound gafftops there.

Grew up there and could see Sylvan Beach from my math class while at school. Sat there waiting for the bell daily with a fishing pole in the back seat. Those were the days!!

Seen that peir blown away a few times. Can't wait to see the new one when I come back to visit!

I am not sure if this is accurate but I did speak with someone at the bait shop and he said during summer months they will be open all nite, including the bait shop.

I just heard the pier won't be open till at least Monday 7/19/10. Apparently (just guessing) there is a little more work to do on the pier.
