The Lighthouse District is Kemah's hidden gem! Free red stamped parking throughout the District & a trolley shuttle service during high traffic weekends! Local shops, restaurants & more!

You can't come to South Texas and not go to Kemah. It's got all the right things. Great rides. Great prices. Great hotels. Great food. Perfect for friends and family or cute dates. Literally the best.

Just 20 miles from downtown Houston, The Kemah Boardwalk is the perfect family getaway. Aquarium Restaurant serves guests a great view of our 50,000 gallon aquarium brimming with marine life.

Choose Kemah Boardwalk instead of Houston Zoo in Houston CityPass. This is a perfect place for groups & family. Don't forget to stroll around shores of Galveston Bay and Clear Lake. Ride all you can.

Lots of fun, especially for the kids. Avoid the weekends. Checkout the shops off the beaten path. For great crawfish, crabs & local fare at reasonable prices, visit The Swamp Shack and nearby joints.

Nice place to hang out with families and friends!

The perfect place to meander around on summer day. There are plenty of amazing restaurants and shops along the boardwalk with live bands every week.

Always a great place to spend the afternoon. Be sure to wear sunscreen if you burn easily! Bubba Gump's and Landry's are both very good places to eat as well

Went on a Saturday night in late august and although it was very stuffy, it was fun! I enjoyed the wooden roller coster very much it goes very fast.

The people watching is sad, and you may catch a glimpse of the occasional puke splat. The perfect place for an existential crisis.

So fun!!! Tons of great food (as well as traditional fair food), fun rides, music, and a beautiful view
Morgan GrebensJuly 17, 2018
This place was mediocre at best. The term Boardwalk in this case is a stretch. It is not an actual boardwalk. It is more like a marketplce but with an amusement park. A small amusement park.
KimJuly 28, 2015
Always something fun to do and see. Live music, fireworks, playgrounds.
Berenice FerreroOctober 3, 2014
Loved it... lots of rides, lots of fun, with a great view to the ocean. Only 30 minutes from downtown houston.
Marlene MorganAugust 19, 2016
WOW. So much to do here including riding a Yacht for $20 & Speed Boat $20. Great rides and tons of places to eat.
Anya KhmeliovaOctober 13, 2014

Great place if the weather cooperates! Kids and teens love it.

Go to the hibachi restaurant for a great seaside experience for dinner and be sure to visit the sting ray aquarium.

Nice and cute neighborhood but can finish walking in 4 minutes if you don’t watch any boat :)

I really miss this place, I remember that I was there while Houston was freezing, that didn't stop me from getting in to the coasters several times.

The Kemah Boardwalk is like an premium outlet on the beach, but with amazing food and great views!

2 days and 1 night is plenty of time. The Boardwalk Inn is a great place to stay for 1 night.

Don't take pictures of the guy running the Farris wheel if you have a camera and playing with speed settings. You will get kicked off the ride.
Kairy WalkerApril 22, 2014
You MUST eat the fudge right near here! Grest views. Perfect weekend oasis!
Nansky G.September 26, 2014

Elizabeth LovejoyJune 7, 2013
Don't wear jewelry on the rides because if it falls off the employees can't go and get it under the ride.
Denise SotoMarch 24, 2015
This was mine and Donnie's favorite place to be. we loved taking an evening stroll on the boardwalk.

They always charged for parking in the lots on the weekends. It's about $6-7 depending on which lot you choose.

The shopping options are hokey tourist traps, but the frequent festivals and special events make it a fun outdoor option.
Dwayne HoltSeptember 9, 2010
Great atmosphere for a date or the family! Some of the finest food and entertainment around! Love the spot!

EXTREMELY crowded on the weekends & during the summer. If you are able to go during the week, you'll have a much better experience!
