Find a boat on Lake Travis, to enjoy a wonderful time on the lake! Be sure to visit Hippie Hollow Park, Pace Bend Park, and Devil’s Cove- the go-to party spot on the lake. If you are interested in water sports, ask the boat owner if they have life jackets, wakeboarding, water skiing equipment available.
In the Kemah area, set sail for Clear Lake, Bolivar Peninsula, Goat Island, and of course the can’t miss Galveston Bay! From Galveston, you can make a day trip to South Padre Island and Isla Blanca, you just enjoy the beautiful beaches nearby.
From Austin, there are plenty of nearby lakes and rivers to enjoy onboard. Try Lake Austin and Lady Bird Lake for a one-of-a-kind day!

For longer stays on board, we recommend hiring a sailboat or catamaran. Sailboats are perfect for accommodating couples or small families. While catamarans are known for their stability, spaciousness, and comfort making it easy to sleep about 6 to 8 guests (depending on the model and length of the vessel) on board.
Those interested in hourly or daily rentals might prefer a motorboat or pontoon boat. They are relatively easy to navigate and manage, and you can cruise at faster speeds compared to sailing boats. An added plus with motorboats is that you can also practice water sports like wakeboarding and water-skiing.
Pontoon boats or party barges are great for hosting parties and get-togethers, due to their open deck plan and deck plan. Some even come with a built-in bar and cup holders as well as a fridge and Bluetooth audio systems, perfect for a party on Lake Austin.
With Click&Boat, the leading boat rental service, guests can select from a range of boat types like pontoon boats, ski boats, party boats, jet skis, sailboats, and more! We are committed to helping you find a boat that fits your budget and suits your needs.
Once you have found the perfect boat, send a message to a boat owner using our internal messaging system in order to clarify any questions you may have. After that, all that is left to do is book your rental. And after your experience aboard, be sure to leave a review.
However, if you prefer, you can request a free quote from our team of knowledgeable sailing advisors. They will help you find the crewed yacht charter of your dreams, as well as help you plan all the details of your week, hour, or day on the water in Texas.
