Life in Kemah


Kemah is home to the “Kemah Waterfront and Boardwalk,” a premier marina complex with day-sail, fishing expeditions, restaurants, hotel and retail shops. Kemah’s once sleepy restaurant row has bloomed into a 30-acre family-entertainment complex. This mega-project was unveiled four years ago by Landry’s Restaurants, Inc. and is handsomely designed and beautifully maintained and already challenges San Antonio’s River Walk, the Alamo, and Space Center Houston, as one of the top tourism draws in Texas.

SchoolsSchools


Kemah students attend schools in the Clear Creek ISD.
