A year-round carnival by the bay, Kemah Boardwalk boasts themed restaurants, retail shops, and fun for the whole family. There’s a parade of good seafood, with heavy-hitting chains like Joe's Crab Shack, Landry's Seafood House, The Cadillac Bar, and The Crab House, among others. The Aquarium Restaurant is built around a stunning 50,000-gallon aquarium brimming with marine life. Shopping is mostly limited to toys, candy, and small gifts, such as Christmas at Kemah, which offers winter-themed collectibles. But the fun hasn’t started! Kemah’s 35 acres feature a 36-foot carousel, a 65-foot Ferris wheel, and rides like the Aviator, the Inverter and the Boardwalk Tower. (A day pass for the rides is $20.) Don’t miss the arcade and Midway games, too. Weekdays are naturally slower here, and some rides may close for maintenance in the winter.
