Not nearly as dark.

On the other hand, it might be dark enough.  If it is a lot closer (for me, Hallettsville is a lot closer than Galveston) then I would suggest checking it out and seeing if it's dark enough. Try to go in the dark of the moon, or at least when the moon is crescent not gibbous or full.   I mostly wanted to share the night sky brightness map.  I'm pretty confident that you can see the milky way from the green areas.

My wife and I would like to do a day trip to look at the Milky Way. One website suggested Hallettsville or Sargent Beach. I would be grateful for any suggestions. The next new moon 🌚 will be this Saturday.
