Lost belts near The Strand, Galveston
I’m Sofia Bennett. I lost two belts last night. I was walking the Strand around 7:45 p.m. on Tuesday after grabbing a coffee near 25th Street when a gust of wind and a crowd pushed me toward the ferry landing, and I must have dropped them. One is tan brown leather with a brass buckle and a tiny initials engraving 'LB' on the inside. The other is a black fabric belt with a silver buckle and a faded red stripe along the edge. Both fit my style and my job; I’m hoping they’re somewhere safe and not far from the seawall. The memory of them lingers as I think about packing for work tomorrow.
Lost stamps near The Strand, Galveston
While sorting through my stamp album at the Seawall promenade yesterday around 4:20 PM, I realized a small leather case with my stamp collection had slipped from my bag. The case held about a dozen stamps from the 1960s and 70s, some with bright cancellations and a few creased corners. I’ve had these stamps since childhood, and losing them stings because they carry memories of trips with my grandfather. If anyone found them, I’d be grateful to be reunited with them through the site.
Lost: postcards from grandma in Galveston
I was on The Strand outside The Tremont House at about 7:15 PM last Sunday when I realized my postcards were gone. They're a small stack, pale blue with seaside photos from Galveston, and they all came from my grandmother, who died last year. I kept them in a tin inside my bag, and I swear I last saw the tin near the bench by the Strand entrance. I retraced my steps to the Seawall and back to the Tremont, asking a couple strangers if they’d seen a tin, but nothing turned up. Losing them feels like losing a piece of her, something I can’t replace, and my heart aches a bit every time I think about it.
Lost: two Toasters in Galveston.
Hi, I’m Grace Flores, a renter and home cook in Galveston. This Tuesday around 7:20 p.m., I realized our two toasters were missing from the kitchen counter of my apartment on 23rd Street, just a short walk from The Strand. The pair is mismatched—one sleek stainless steel, the other black—with a small scorch mark on the cords. I’m hoping they turn up, because breakfast plans depend on them and I’ll be relieved to know they’re safe.
Found sandals along Galveston Seawall
I found these sandals this afternoon around 4:15 PM along the Seawall near the Strand in Galveston. They're brown leather flip-flops with a bright turquoise strap and a few nicks on the soles from beach sand. I tucked them under a bench by the old lighthouse overlook so they wouldn't blow away in the Gulf breeze. I know how it feels to misplace something you've worn all summer, and I hope the owner sees this and realizes they're not far away.
Lost: Navy Suits near The Strand, Galveston
I lost my navy two-piece suits after leaving a show at the Grand Opera House around 7:15 PM Friday. I wandered The Strand between 25th Street and the harbor, asking shopkeepers if anyone had seen a stray garment. The night air was cool, and my mind was racing about an important job interview next week. If someone found them, I hope they were picked up and kept safe by a kind stranger.
Lost pocket watches at The Strand, Galveston
At around 7:15 p.m. last Saturday, I realized my grandfather's pocket watches were gone from my vest pocket while I was strolling along The Strand in Galveston. I had paused near a coffee cart and then walked toward 23rd Street, only to notice they had vanished when I reached the corner by the old opera house. The watches are brass with a dark patina and a tiny engraving on the back: 'B.H. 1903.' They mean the world to me, a family heirloom, and losing them feels like losing a part of my history. I'm hopeful that someone who picked them up might remember where they came from and return them to the people who care.

Lost driver's license in Galveston
I was walking along the Galveston seawall near The Strand at 11:30 a.m. today when I realized my driver’s license wasn’t in my pocket. I retraced the path along the Strand and the nearby Pier 21 area, but it seems to have slipped away again. It’s essential for work and daily life, and I’m hoping to have it back soon.
LOST: GPS Devices – Galveston, TX
I was fishing along the Galveston Seawall at 7:30 p.m. last Sunday when my GPS devices disappeared from a rugged black case. They’re not fancy, but I depend on them for safe navigation and to mark spots I like to return to on the water. I retraced my steps along the Seawall toward Stewart Beach, but the devices didn’t turn up. If someone found them, I’d really appreciate their return through the site so I can arrange to pick them up or identify them in person.
FOUND brooches on The Strand, Galveston
Found brooches near The Strand in Galveston around 4:15 PM today. I was walking along a bench with a view of the Seawall when I noticed a small pile of jewelry tucked under the bench. I picked up several brooches and scanned the area, but no one showed up to claim them, so I brought them home to keep safe. The collection includes a turquoise hummingbird, a gold-tone sunflower, and a delicate enamel flower. If these belong to you, I will hold them securely until the rightful owner posts for recovery on the site.
Bright red beach umbrella with yellow trim
I found a bright red beach umbrella with a yellow trim this afternoon around 2:45pm along the Seawall Blvd near the 27th Street Beach Access in Galveston. The canopy is about 6 feet across and the fabric shows some sun fade; the fiberglass ribs are solid, and the pole has a small dent at the bottom. There’s a white sticker with the initials 'LJ' on the carrying sleeve, and it was lying in the sand near the bike racks by the lifeguard stand. If the owner sees this, please reach out so I can help you get it back—it's obviously been used and meant something to someone.
Space gray iPad Pro 11” in blue case
I lost my space gray iPad Pro 11-inch in a blue silicone case yesterday around 3pm outside The Strand on Mechanic Street near 23rd Street in Galveston. The back has a white sticker with a hand-drawn cat and the name Kiki—super distinctive. The screen has a small crack at the top-right corner, and there's a soft dent along the bottom edge from a fall last week. It’s loaded with travel photos and class notes, and it really means a lot to me; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back. If found, please message me here.

Silver Yamaha flute with blue velvet case near The Strand
I found a silver flute this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the Strand Theatre on The Strand in downtown Galveston. It's a Yamaha student model, silver-plated, about 26 inches long, tucked in a blue velvet-lined hard case with a few scuffs. The lid has a tiny dent, and the metal latch on the case is engraved with the initials 'L.K.' Inside, there was a folded sheet of music with 'L.K.' written on the top page. If this belongs to you, please share the initials on the case latch and describe the dent to verify. I'll happily hand it over to its owner.
