Tiki Island, Texas

Tiki Island is a village in Galveston County, Texas, United States.

[3] Tiki Island is largely man-made and was built in the 1960s, when developers dug canals and used the fill to elevate the land to between four and ten feet above sea level.

At first, Tiki was primarily a small fishing camp, though it evolved into a place for weekend homes, then into a village that was incorporated on August 30, 1982.

[2] The street names have a Polynesian theme: Bamboo, Castaway, Bora Bora, Coconut, Copra, Diamond Head, Easterly, Hawaii, Kona, Lanai, Leilani, Lotus, Majuro, Mango, Maui, Moorea, Oahu, Outrigger, Palmetto, Papeete, Paradise, Port O'Call, Tahiti, and Wahini.

The eastern half of Tiki Island is zoned to the Texas City Independent School District (TCISD).

[13] On December 2, 2015, Texas Education Agency (TEA) Commissioner Michael Williams announced that TCISD would absorb La Marque Independent School District (LMISD), effective July 1, 2016.
