Overview

Come experience the beauty of Lake Austin on a private, partially guided pontoon boat cruise. Located just minutes from Downtown, Lake Austin offers 22 miles of great sightseeing views, including privately-owned waterfront and cliffside homes and popular shoreside restaurants.

Unique to Lake Austin is its clear, constant-level water and intimate setting, making for the most beautiful scenery for pictures & social media-worthy photos with the iconic Pennybacker Bridge. You may even catch sight of Austin's own professional wake surfing phenoms Ashley Kidd and Raleigh Hager!

Whether you’re looking to celebrate an upcoming wedding, a graduation, birthday or just want some quality family time - this is the perfect option for you and your group.

What To Expect

Pennybacker Bridge

This steel arched bridge built in 1982 is an iconic Austin landmark. Spanning the distance of Lake Austin (1,150 ft long), it connects the North & South sections of the Capital of Texas Highway. The bridge's arched design was created to avoid having support columns that would otherwise interfere with water skiers, wake surfers and boaters on the 22 miles of water below.

Emma Long Metropolitan Park

This municipal park on the shores of Lake Austin is well-known for its camping, fishing, hiking, picnic & swimming amenities, but also for its notoriety as a 5-mile mountain biking and motorcycle trail. Named after the first woman to serve as Mayor Pro Tem in Austin in 1967, Emma Long Park continues to be a long-standing favorite of locals and visitors alike.

Austin Country Club

This private golf club is located on the banks of Lake Austin. It features a challenging 18-hole course and hosts tournaments, including the popular WGC Dell Match Play. It was designed by architect Pete Dye and is home to gold legend Harvey Penick.

Mount Bonnell

This beautiful 5-acre park is located almost 800 feet over Lake Austin. The cliffs of Mount Bonnell provide a vista for viewing not only the lake from atop, but the expansive hills surrounding Austin.
