About Kemah Boardwalk
Kemah Boardwalk is a waterfront strip of rides, restaurants and shops on Galveston Bay, about 30 miles south of downtown Houston. Walking in is free, which makes it easy for mixed groups where only some people ride. Riders should buy the $29.99 All Day Ride Pass, or the $49.99 Weekend Adventure Pass if you will also visit Galveston or the Downtown Aquarium.
