Seabrook is well-known among Houston metropolitan area residents for its fish markets on Waterfront Drive where resident shrimpers and fishermen bring in their catches daily. Besides bordering the bay, the city encompasses marshes though which runoff from inland fields drain to the bay. There are eight miles of continuous trails from Hammer Street to Galveston Bay at Pine Gully Park, where the Lucky Trails Marathon is run in March. Seabrook is also home of the eclectic Maribelle's which sponsors a popular 5K fun run every August. Seabrook is also host to the Texas Concours d'Elegance "Keels & Wheels" classic car and boat show held each year the first weekend in May at Lakewood Yacht Club.  The lower Todville Road area of Seabrook is directly across the channel (that connects Clear Lake to Galveston Bay) from the Kemah Boardwalk. The current mayor of Seabrook is Gary Renola.
