Lake Travis Guide!

Whether it’s summer or not, there is no better place to enjoy the Texas sun and cool off a bit than Lake Travis in Austin. This lake is one of the clearest in Texas and with the hill country surrounding the body of water it is easily one of the most beautiful lakes in the state.

Check out our list of the top things to do on Lake Travis to keep you busy all summer long!

1. Unhooked Sports

Ever heard of E Foiling? Well if not you are in  for quite the surprise! This awesome activity allows you to hop on what seems to be a wake surf board and ride around the water without a boat!

This will surely be one of the most unique experiences you take part in on Lake Travis.

To set up a lesson call or text (512) 970-9361.

2. ATX Boat Rentals

Lake days are more fun when you’re on a boat! Round up a group of friends and hit the water with ATX Boat Rentals. You get to choose which boat you want for the size of your party, and from our experience, all of the captains are extremely knowledgable about Lake Travis. Our captain took us to all of the secret locations around the lake, so be sure to ask your captain if they know any special places!

Your lake day experience will be unmatched with an afternoon of taking a dip in the cool water and vibing to music with your friends.
