Sunset Sails

Feel the stress drain away with the boat’s gentle rocking and the waves’ ” sploosh ” against the side. Smell the fresh, moist breeze. Listen to the peaceful sounds of nature. Then rela-a-ax … as Captain Nance brings the boat “about” into the beautiful Texas sunset. Is your anniversary coming up soon? What a perfect way to celebrate – with a private sail into the sunset!

Check out our list of the Best Places to Sail in Austin

Day Cruises

Sail in the shade of the cockpit canopy or “catch some rays” on the deck. See the ducks, seagulls, turtles, and sometimes an egret or heron. Sit back and rela-a-ax… or take the helm for a while. Bring your camera, snacks, and drinks! Bring your family!

New!  We are Proud Members of Texas Fishing Guides , the best source for fishing information in Texas Lakes.

Informal Sailing Lessons

Your U.S. Coast Guard licensed Master, Captain Nance, can give you sailing & safety instruction and techniques. An informal lesson can be combined with a charter. One or two people may want to learn about sailing, while their friends may want to kick back and relax.

Assumption of Risk

Disclaimer : Sailing is a thrilling and rewarding experience, but it is essential to remember that it comes with inherent risks. Before taking to the open waters, that some time to understand the potential risks associated with sailing and how to mitigate them.  Assumption of risk is a legal principle that states that a person who engages in an inherently dangerous activity assumes the associated risks. This means that if a person chooses to participate in a potentially hazardous activity, such as sailing, they accept the inherent risks involved in that activity and cannot hold others liable for any resulting injuries or damages.

Every time you set sail, you are responsible for understanding the potential risks and hazards associated with the activity. This includes understanding the weather, the environment, and the safety protocols related to sailing. Be aware of the potential dangers of the boat itself, such as capsizing, running aground, or getting caught in a storm. Understanding the risks and hazards of sailing is essential to staying safe on the water. Have the proper safety equipment and knowledge to handle any situation. By taking the time to understand the risks associated with sailing, you can ensure that you and your crew have a safe and enjoyable experience on the open waters.

Private Charters on Lake Travis

"This is one of the most exciting things we did all year! Captain Tim is a great host and a fantastic sailor who showed very clearly his competency in the high winds which made our night sail exhilarating! We both highly recommend Sail Austin Charters to anyone and everyone. Thanks again Tim!" − Devin H
"We chose the 6 hour boat cruise with a captain Tim for a bachelorette party and it was absolutely incredible! Captain Tim is extremely kind and flexible. He had a ton of fun knowledge about the lake and knew all the great spots. He had a huge cooler for our beverages and snacks and took some really fun photos! We got out to swim in the lake and he had a fun noodle line that we could all hang out on. Lake Travis was also only about 35 mins from Austin, and was extremely easy to access via Uber. I would absolutely book with captain Tim again!" − Kayla
"The experience with Captain Tim and Sail Austin was simply perfect!!! I could not have imagined a better choice for a personalized, first class experience! Captain Tim takes every effort to create the day you want and need. He is a master sailor that can create an adrenaline filled exciting sail, or a relaxing cruise across the lake." − Adrienne C
"WE LOVE CAPTAIN TIM BEST! I contacted him about surprising my husband with a sunset cruise for his 30th birthday, and I couldn't be happier. He was so accommodating and willing to brainstorm ideas with me about how to make it perfect and special. We ended up taking lobster rolls and eating them on board, it was super nice!" − Katrina B

Private Charters

The entire boat under the care of your Captain is the key to our private charter service. The schedule and itinerary are completely up to you whether you sail, anchor, swim, sunbathe…it is your choice. The luxury of the largest sailing yacht on Lake Travis is yours on an hourly basis. This is not a party barge but the best sailing experience available short of going to one of our destination charters in the Virgin Islands!

Book a space for a sunset sail NOW! Every Saturday, unless we’ve already booked a private charter, the yacht Quintessence leaves the dock an hour and a half before sunset for a lovely 2 1/2 hour sunset cruise. This is the one time when you can come and cruise by yourself or with a friend without booking the entire yacht as a private charter. Join other guests and meet new people or simply sit back and enjoy.

Experience the places you’ve only dreamed of sailing. From the blue waters of the Virgin Islands to the archipelagos of the Mediterranean to Tahiti in the South Pacific, Sail Austin will host your vacation dream charter and arrange a complete turnkey cruising experience – sail or power – under the organization of a Captain that you will personally know before you go! We take care of everything.

Boating Lessons

Or seen them leaning over and wondered why they didn’t go over? Sail Austin will introduce you to the sport…and art… and soul… of sailing. And, the odds are you will be hooked. We will even guide you in looking for your first boat!

- Samantha S.

Me and 24 of my friends rented Joe's boat for a bachelor party. We had great time and Joe was a great host, making sure we found a solid place on the lake to park and have a good time. I highly recommend this if you're looking to accommodate a large group.

We were celebrating a bachelor party recently and joe showed us a great time on the boat and water. his style and attitude fit perfectly for a group just wanting to have fun without a ton of rules (responsible fun of course). highly recommend joe for group events looking to have a blast., lake travis yacht charters blog.

Float Through Our 5-Star Reviews

wave in water logo

By far the best part of our trip to Austin. Captain Dave was awesome! Brought us to Devil's Cove on Lake Travis, where we partied with other boats in the area. This was perfect for our bachelorette party and would recommend for any group of people for a perfect, fun afternoon.

Kevin was super! So friendly and accommodating. Out boat was in great shape and offered Bluetooth as well as a lily pad and tube large enough for 3 adults to enjoy. We had such a fun and relaxing day and couldn't have asked for a better experience! Highly recommend Wave in Water!!

By far the best! Wave in the water is very accommodating and the owner is very helpful and tries to work with your schedule even on rainy weekends like we had. Thanks Wave in Water, we will definitely be back soon!!!

We had a great time with Wave in Water for July 4. Our captain was new but he was very nice and accommodating. The only downfall is the dock is very small so you have to wait for all the other boats. Lake Travis is beautiful.

Stephanie Dolan

Book them now! This is our second time going with Good Time Tours and we will continue booking with them in the future! They're fantastic. Easy going and outgoing crew and captains. Very responsive and engaging. Kris walked us through everything and answered all of our questions. We then had the absolute BEST time out on the water with Captain Dave and Captain Anthony! They were incredible - safe, reliable, hilarious, and an all around blast to be around! They even threw us new drinks while we were partying on the lily pad! Other boats legit said our captains were the coolest ones! Highly highly recommend - would give 10 out of 5 stars if possible.

Emily

Emily Pollock

This was the most perfect trip. We did 3pm tour that started with a party and ended with the most beautiful sunset. Captain Chris was the bomb and can throw a deep eddy cocktail perfectly onto the Lilly pad so we never had to leave the water. He was an excellent Grillmaster and the perfect host. Vibes were perfect and would recommend 10/10.

These guys are great! Best Lake Travis party barge rental service ever! The boat was nice and clean, they grilled amazing food, and made sure we were all safe.

Thank you Captain Chris for being the best captain on the water. I had the best time of my life.

Captain Chris made this so special for us he even grilled all of our food to perfection. Don't hesitate to book this company they will take great care of you. Unlike any other boat rental company in America. Hands down the best

Jennifer

Jennifer Jenks

We did this boat experience for my bachelorette party, there were 13 females from the age 25-65. We had Captain Dave and he was awesome!!!!! We weren’t sure what to expect but the whole day exceeded our expectations by far!!!! We went to the party area of the lake but chose to not hook up to the other boats just so there wasn’t so many people we couldn’t keep up with our own party. Captain Dave was the best dj/bartender/entertainer and more! He made our whole weekend and I cannot wait to do this again. I highly recommend this to EVERYONE! Thank you so much Captain Dave and Captain Kris for the MOST unforgettable weekend of my life!!!

destini

Destini Doucet

I planned this for my best friend's bachelorette party in October 2021 while we were Austin, TX. We all had a fantastic time! The area was so beautiful. Our captain was great! He cooked our food for us and was very attentive if we needed anything. I would definitely recommend any group to do this rental here. I also have it on my list for next visits to Austin.

Points of Interest on Lake Travis

Boat party photo gallery, charter boat rental faqs, can i bring my own food and beverage.

Yes of course your choice of type of food. If drinking beer or other alcohol make sure everyone is over 21. We’re not afraid to card you.

What not to bring?

Please do not bring:

Glass (that includes wine bottles and the monogrammed cups for your bridal party

Temporary tattoos Spray tan applicators Pets of any size Glitter or something similar Silly spray Bubble machines Sunflowers seeds Fishing poles Children under the age of three kayaks

And pretty much anything the color red that will stain, like tabasco, red wine, or Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. 

Where do I park?

There’s a lot right outside of the marina where you can park for $15 per vehicle. But let’s be honest, you should probably Uber.

What if I want to cancel my charter?

If you want to cancel your party barge rental we’ll be sad, but we’ll survive — as long as you as long as you follow our cancellation policy.

Can we bring more people?

No. If the number of people you have is more than 17 you want to invite on a boat then you need fewer friends. Our double decker party barges don’t have the design, length, or weight for over 17 and must comply to occupancy rules.

What time should we arrive?

All parties must arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled party boat time for departure.

Your time starts when you booked, not when you arrive — and the ship will sail without you.

What activities will be a part of the boat rental?

We will suggest itineraries however the destinations are your choice. Places we typically go are Mansfield Dam, The island, the Oasis at sunset, Hippie Hollow or Devil’s Cove, lake restaurants, or whatever your choice for your passengers to swim, float, and create some memories. 

We will not be wakeboarding or tubing, kayaking, or renting kayak.

How far in advance should I make a reservation?

Make sure to give yourself plenty of time (at least 4-6 months in advance).  Reservations fill up quickly.

Rented for birthday, we all had such a good time! Perfect birthday celebration. The captain was awesome, he took great care of us. Great staff, very accommodating. Boat was nice, played music, had a lily pad, everything we wanted! Definitely recommend!

We rented a boat through Tide Up for a friend’s birthday and everything was amazing! Management was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. Will definitely book again in the future!

Wes was absolutely amazing! He made sure we were all safe and comfortable throughout our entire boat tour. We were so lucky to have him as our captain! Definitely recommend this company for anyone looking for a good time in Austin!! :)

Picked up the slack when our original driver cancelled. Couldn’t be more considerate to make sure we have a good time, and also stayed safe. He saved the day and we were so thankful!

4 ways to beat the Texas summer heat in Austin including a secret spot on the lake

sailboat rental austin

With temperatures quickly rising, Austinites are looking to nearby waters as a way to stay cool.

Barton Springs, Lake Travis and even the San Marcos River are popular places for swimming and watersports, so if you're looking for ways to get on the water, check out this list:

Kayaking/Stand up paddleboarding

This is a favorite pastime for Austinites. A day rarely goes by that you don't see kayakers or SUP-ers out on Lady Bird Lake. Here's where you can rent kayaks or paddleboards:

  • Rowing Dock (2418 Stratford Drive)
  • Austin Paddle Shack (600 E. Riverside Drive)
  • Austin Rowing Club (74 Trinity St.)
  • EpicSUP (2200 S. Lakeshore Blvd.)
  • Live Love Paddle (1610 E. Riverside Drive)
  • Texas Rowing Center (1541 W. Cesar Chavez St.)

Boat rentals

We all want a friend with a boat, but if you haven't found one yet, you can rent. Austin Rental Boats offers boats for large parties on both Lake Travis and Lake Austin. They also offer a Lake Austin sunset boat tour and cove boat party. Luxury Yachts are available through Lake Travis Yacht Rentals and Party Boats . ATX Party Boats offers pontoon and double decker boats for Lake Travis.

The San Marcos River is a famed tubing spot. Here's where you can rent tubes or take a tubing trip, both on the San Marcos River and other rivers:

  • Texas State Tubes
  • Austin Tubing Trips
  • Lions Club Tube Rental
  • Son's River Ranch

Riverboat rides

This is for those who want to be on the water, not in it. Check out these riverboat rides for sightseeing, bat watching and more:

  • Lone Star Riverboat Cruises
  • Capital Cruises
  • Lake Austin Riverboats

A secret spot on the lake

If you're set with your equipment but unsure of where to paddle, check out Snake Island. Located in the eastern part of Lady Bird Lake close to the EpicSUP dock, the island is hidden by trees and undergoes maintenance from a local group of "hippies."

"They bring their own fertilizer, they cut down trees or they'll mow, and they just do their own thing," said Daniel Broxton, an EpicSUP manager. "I haven't seen them in a minute, but when they do come, I know because they'll be pulled up over here, and they've got tons of stuff that they're working on to keep up with the island."

Despite the name, Snake Island doesn't have an above average number of snakes. It does, however, have a picnic table, rope swing and lots of tree carvings from lovebirds. The island is also an occasional party pad people can paddle out or be ferried to, Broxton said.

Our vacation home rental firm used this business. Thomas contacted us and finalized the specifics. Perfect boat was delivered exactly as promised. He was very nice and accommodating. He also took time to explain the rental, the boat, safety rules, and even gave us a good recommendation when we asked about a good place to stop for lunch while on the lake.

Photo of Traci H.

We rented a jet ski + tube for the day and the process was very easy. We were very disappointed in the tube though as within ten minutes of use (in the water), we saw it was deflating and taking on water. We lifted it up onto the dock to keep it safe and help drain the water out. We chose not to get upset/demand a refund because of the cheap rental price ($10). Unfortunately, we were charged over $200 for the deflated tube when all was said and done. We were accused of being on it on dry land, which was not the case. The gentleman who rented it to us no longer would respond to texts after charging our credit card. Very disappointing. This place may be cheaper but if anything goes wrong....you will be paying more than you expected.

Photo of Pam S.

Thomas , the owner, was helpful, flexible and great to work with. The boat was fantastic! We had a great time!

The Best Seafood Spots In Austin

fried seafood, shrimp, oysters, and beer on a table

photo credit: Richard Casteel

Nicolai McCrary

Nicolai McCrary

June 20, 2024

As excited as Austinites get about boat rentals and paddleboarding, Town Lake is not an ocean. And despite all the swimming, Austin is not a coastal city. But thanks to technology, transportation, and something called refrigeration, we have access to great seafood from just about every body of water there is. The next time you feel like diving into a mound of Sinaloan-style ceviche or demolishing a seafood tower with your pinky raised, visit these spots.

A spread of dishes and drinks on a table at Quality Seafood.

Quality Seafood

Quality Seafood is half market and half restaurant, anchored by a bar that runs down the middle of the store. Portions are plentiful and the seafood is as fresh as you’ll find in Austin, short of whatever might be swimming around in Town Lake. Grab a dozen oysters and some peel-and-eat shrimp, then get any of the fried seafood baskets—we like the Go Fish since you can choose any three options. 

The tostada aguachile from El Marisquero.

El Marisquero Seafood

East Austin

El Marisquero is home to the best aguachiles in town, and that alone should be reason enough to visit this small seafood trailer in South Austin. But if you decide to venture past the red and green versions of the truck’s best dish, there’s also a large menu of ceviches, oysters, whole fried fish, and a half pineapple filled with grilled shrimp, octopus, and cheese. Bring a group and order as much as you can—this is a place where everybody will leave with a new personal favorite and plenty of leftovers. 

A gin martini with an olive. Oyster on a plate in the background.

Clark's Oyster Bar

Clarksville

Here’s the de facto answer to the question “Where should I eat oysters and sip martinis in Austin?” Clark’s has earned that reputation by offering excellent versions of both. The cozy dining room feels very New England, but when the weather is nice, there’s no better place to be than on the large patio covered in pastel-yellow umbrellas that provide shade, ambiance, and a feeling of coastal elitism. A meal here isn’t cheap, and because reservations book out weeks in advance, it’s not really one that you casually walk into. 

The Este Ceviche.

It’s easy to forget you’re on a relatively quiet stretch of Manor Road when you step through the doors at Este, a Mexican seafood restaurant that feels plucked out of a small town in Baja California. It’s the type of place appropriate for big floppy hats and white linen pants. Prioritize the raw menu—especially the top neck clams swimming in a fiery pool of habanero pico and chile oil—but save room for excellent fish tacos and the butterflied and grilled fish. And try not to spill anything on your fancy pants. 

A spread of dishes and a cocktail from Huckleberry on a wooden picnic table.

Huckleberry

South Austin

It might come as a surprise that a trailer on the patio of a South Austin whiskey distillery serves the best fried Gulf seafood in the city. But that’s part of what makes Austin’s food-truck scene exciting. Fish and shrimp are the centerpieces at Huckleberry, and you’ll find both sandwiched between buttery toasted buns or piled on a bed of crispy fries. Get the sandwich if it’s your first time here and pair it with a cocktail from the bar inside. 

photo credit: Holly Dirks

Ceviche in a styrofoam container from Ceviche Love.

Ceviche Love

Ceviche Love is located near the Circuit of the Americas track, meaning that anyone who lives in South, Central, or North Austin is probably not going to pass this trailer on their way home from work. It’s worth the detour. The Sinaloan-style ceviche is bright, tart, and packed full of fresh seafood, and it works especially well when added to an order of freshly shucked oysters. Show up for the oysters preparados, but you can’t go wrong with shrimp cocktail, aguachiles, and excellent fish tacos. 

The crawfish from Deckhand.

Deckhand Oyster Bar & Seafood

South Lamar

Take a quick glance at Deckhand’s menu and you’ll see popcorn shrimp, oysters on the half shell, and boudin sausage. Keep looking, and suddenly there’s chicken satay, green curry soup, and thom ka gai. It’s part Thai restaurant and part seafood joint, and it does a great job on both fronts. The concepts don’t overlap a ton—it feels more like two different restaurants that share a roof and a kitchen, though a few dishes, like a whole fried pompano topped with spicy Thai basil sauce, blend Deckhand’s two personalities. 

A spread of dishes on a patio table at Perla’s.

Perla's Seafood & Oyster Bar

South Congress

This is one of the more popular seafood restaurants in town, and they’ve got a reservation list (and the prices) to prove it. Lucky for you, the buzzy patio is walk-in only—it’s where you want to be when the weather is nice. Pull up a chair and order a dozen oysters from some tiny port town in New England, but don’t miss out on the crispy skin rockfish or grilled octopus. There’s a lot of overlap between the menu at Perla’s and its sister restaurant, Clark’s . So much, that we wouldn’t be surprised if the restaurants were connected by a tunnel under Town Lake where servers race back and forth with icy trays of New England oysters and chilled buckets of champagne. But when both spots book up as quickly as these do, just be glad to have twice as many chances to snag a table.

Shrimp from Bill’s Oyster.

Bill’s Oyster

Downtown Austin

You can probably guess the specialty at Bill’s Oyster on W. 3rd Street. Outside of the obvious, there’s a small raw-bar menu, two seafood towers, three types of caviar, and a few hot plates like crab cakes and fried grouper fingers. It sits somewhere between a fancy Downtown restaurant and an after-work hangout. Despite all the deluxe seafood and prices that match the neighborhood’s extravagant rent, it’s a fairly casual experience. But when you’re in the area and in desperate need of something cold, refreshing, and briney, it’s one of the best options. 

The oysters, fried shrimp basket, and lobster mac and cheese from Garbo's.

Garbo's

North Austin

Garbo’s might be most famous for lobster rolls, but they’re not the main reason to come here. It’s for everything else seafood— East Coast oysters, massive fried shrimp, and smoked fish dip with grilled bread. That said, the lobster rolls are good, but portions can be a little too inconsistent for a $30+ sandwich. Grab some fried shrimp or a blackened fish sandwich, then find a table on the cute, shaded patio that feels very Texas-meets-New England. 

The fried snapper po' boy from Turf N Surf.

Turf N' Surf

The “surf” side of the menu here is extensive, with 13 different seafood options, all of which can be fried, grilled, or blackened and prepared as po’boys, tacos, or salads. The end result is over 100 different ways to enjoy a meal—and that’s without even getting to the “turf” side of things. Despite being located in the back of a sports bar Downtown, this is the type of place that lists most of the fish at “market price,” which often translates to “whoa, that was a little more than I was expecting.” But when everything is fresh and wild-caught from the gulf, we’re OK spending a few extra dollars. 

The sea scallops with squid ink linguini from Plank.

Plank Seafood Provisions

This large, nautical-themed seafood restaurant and oyster bar sits on a busy shopping corner of The Domain . There are four different seafood tower options, allowing you to determine exactly how much you’d like to ball out, and in what capacity. For something less swanky, try the salads, soups, grilled seafood, and pastas. Start with dressed oysters—we like the ones with jalapeño shoyu and smoked trout roe when they’re available—then get the squid ink linguini with sea scallops or a big slab of fish that’s been grilled and finished with lemon.
