Kemah Overview

Located near scenic Galveston Bay, Kemah has blossomed into a thriving small city. Boasting an economic base largely focused upon tourism, this quaint and welcoming community is a fantastic option for those looking to explore the quieter side of Texas life.

What is the history of Kemah?

Coming to fruition with the establishment of a post office in 1907, Kemah quickly established itself as a fishing town. The 1920s - 1950s were a bit of a golden age for the city, as somewhat suspect 'businessmen' helped launch a number of beach-side casinos in the region. Crowds increased as did corruption, and by 1960 the state attorney general had shuttered the gambling halls. From the 1990s on Kemah began to emphasize its tourism, with added infrastructure and a focus upon its boardwalk area. Today, this scenic city remains a popular tourist draw, with an additional budding industry in shipping.

How is the weather in Kemah?

Humidity can be high, although the water winds help offset the mugginess most evenings. Summers are typically hot in that Texas way, with cool and snow-free winters. Spring can occasionally bring strong storms and rain, while autumn tends to be quite mild and pleasant.

How do I get around town?

The George Bush Airport in Houston is the closest air travel for those living in Kemah apartments, and no true rail is offered. Taxis are popular, as is bicycling around the city, although most residents of Kemah rentals claim ownership of a personal vehicle.

What is the Kemah commute like?

Traffic around Kemah proper is generally an easygoing affair, with light commuter congestion towards Galveston most days. Commuting to Houston can be another story, as peak hours in the morning and afternoon are known to move at a snail's pace. State Highway 96 and Highway 146 act as the primary roadways in and out of the city.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Bay Area Citizen' and the 'Galveston Daily News' act as the main sources of print media in the vicinity, with some radio available in the formats of talk, sporting news, classic rock and country as well. Broadcast television is typical of the area, with most major affiliates such as CBS and NBC readily available.

Why live in Kemah, TX?

Dubbed the 'Gateway to the Bay', Kemah has much to offer potential new residents. The seaside scenery is legendary, and the charming ambiance of the city proper is flush with boutiques, eateries and retail store options. This is a city for those yearning for a place where everyone knows your name, and doors are often left unlocked. If spectacular oceanic views and a slower-paced way of life are your bread and butter, then look no further than an apartment in Kemah.

What Kemah landmarks should I see?

The Kemah Fire Station and City Hall are both well worth a visit, and the funky architecture of the Kemah Community Center is a must-see. The Boardwalk Inn is a classic reminder of the oceanfront city's sometimes wild history, boasting jaw-dropping water views and vintage design flair.

What is there to do around Kemah?

Hit the Kemah boardwalk for some classic games of chance and carnival rides, or enjoy some of the city's famous clams at one of the many restaurants that line the wood planked viewpoint. Putt-Putt Funhouse is a minigolf wonderland, and the nearby Clear Creek Winery is an ideal stopping and tasting point for fans of the grape.

Any annual festivals or Kemah events to know?

The Kemah Crawfish Festival is a popular and delicious gathering, and National Hamburger Day draws special attention to the tasty menu item each and every May. Greek Festivals and numerous craft fairs can also be found in the area, and holidays tend to be especially festive around Kemah.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

The Big Easy of New Orleans lies to the east, as does its sister city of Baton Rouge. Houston can be its own nearby weekend getaway, filled to the brim with world famous museums, music venues and an aquarium, and a drive along the coast to Corpus Christi is an ideal way to explore more of the Lone Star State in style.

Where is the best place to move in Kemah?

Harbor Homes and Waterford Harbor both emphasize the ocean views, while family-friendly neighborhoods like Kemah Oaks are more concerned with proximity to schools and shopping. Regardless of where you end up hanging your (ten gallon) hat, one thing is crystal clear - there's certainly no place quite like Kemah along the Texas coast! Good luck with your apartment search!
