Soak up the outdoors
It’s no secret: most of Kemah’s attractions are outside. (Who wouldn’t want to see that view?) But there are more ways to take in Kemah’s natural beauty than a stroll down the Kemah Boardwalk. From venturing to one of our nearby parks or hunkering down at a well-loved fishing hole, there are plenty of ways to answer the call of the great outdoors right here in Kemah.
Park adventures
With Armand Bayou Nature Center, you’re just a short drive away from the natural wonders of the Texas Gulf Coast. Kayak along the bayou. Explore five miles of well-maintained trails. Experience a guided firefly hike. It’s a fun way to observe the unique beauty of our natural Gulf Coast habitat.
You can also hike and bike the Seabrook Wildlife Rescue & Park. Take in the peace and quiet of nature in this carefully tended conservation area for native plants and animals. And at Hester Garden Park, you can walk along the footbridge, hang out at the observation deck, or relax outdoors at a picnic area.

Free as a bird
