Private Lake Austin Boat Cruise With Full Sun Shading
Overview
Come experience the beauty of Lake Austin on a private, partially guided pontoon boat cruise equipped with a foldable dual canopy for optional full sun shading! Just a short drive from Downtown, Lake Austin offers 22 miles of great sightseeing views, including 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.
