Harbour

Large marina on the south shore of Clear Lake at Kemah, Texas, part of the Watergate Yachting Center.

Guide

Approach and anchoring

Reached from Galveston Bay through the Clear Lake channel, about 15 minutes by water. Clear Lake is a sheltered body well screened from the Gulf, so the approach holds no tidal constraint of note.

Practical

More than 1,100 berths across floating, fixed and covered pontoons. Two pools, parking, several heads with showers and tennis courts on the 45 acre site. Opus Ocean Grille serves seafood on the waterfront.

History

The marina was established in 1965 on the south shore of Clear Lake, one of the earliest yachting centres developed on the lake.
