Region: Gulf Coast
Ideally located midway between the big-city allure of Houston and the beaches
of Galveston, the area touches more than 35 miles of waterfront and is comprised
of six distinctive cities—Kemah, La Porte, League City, Nassau Bay, Seabrook and Webster—plus the southernmost portion of
Houston. It boasts succulent seafood, exceptional shipping, a booming boating
community and awe-inspiring nature preserves.
Considered the "Boating Capital of Texas," the focal point is Clear Lake, a
2,000-acre inlet of Galveston Bay and the third-largest pleasure boat basin in
the nation.
Discover the beauty of Galveston Bay while sailing from a marina in Nassau
Bay. Browse charming shops in the seaside village of Seabrook and historic
League City, or shop in Webster's urban stores. Visit Space Center Houston to
see America's space program come to life with interactive exhibits, live shows
and behind-the-scenes NASA tram tours. Enjoy fresh seafood at one of the many
restaurants in Seabrook's Waterfront District overlooking Galveston
Bay.
