Seawolf Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seawolf Park is located on Pelican Island, just north of Galveston, Texas.
Seawolf Park is a memorial to Seawolf (SS-197), a Sargo-class submarine, lost during World War II, possibly sunk by friendly fire, in 1944.
Seawolf Park is the home of the Gato-class submarine, Cavalla (SS-244) and the Edsall-class destroyer escort Stewart (DE-238) .
Also preserved at the park is the sail of the Sturgeon-class submarine Tautog (SSN-639).
Also preserved at the park is the conning tower of the Balao-class submarine Carp (SS-338).
Northwest of the fishing pier, the remains of the WWI Tanker S.S. Selma Concrete ship can be seen.
Seawolf park is unique in that it has a Submarine, an ASW craft, and the remains of a merchant ship; the hunter, the protector, and the protectee, all in one museum area.
There is a picnic area and fishing is allowed.
