3 Hour Private Boat Charter on Lake Austin for up to 12 People

About this activity

Perfect for groups of up to 12 people who want to rent an entire boat themselves!

Our captain serves as a tour guide who may point out landmarks, celebrity homes, or share their own personal stories from the lake. Bring your own drinks—alcoholic beverages welcome—and a camera to capture photos of the lakeside grotto known as Little Venice. Make sure and pack your swimsuit to enjoy the cool waters of Lake Austin along one of the many sandy beaches, or pop into party cove to see what the hype is all about!

The Lake Austin cruise takes off from the Loop 360 Boat Ramp located below the southern end of Pennybacker Bridge over Lake Austin. This three-acre park is primarily used for lake access, but offers a grassy area for picnicking. A few bald cypress and sycamore trees grow along the water's edge.
