Home port on Clear Lake, five minutes from the bay

Waterford Harbor sits on the north shore of Clear Lake, just inside the Clear Creek channel to Galveston Bay. Cruisers leave from here for the islands and come back here when they're done. Weekenders keep a boat here because the showers are clean, the piers are wide and somebody is walking the docks at night.

Three shipyards and two ship stores within a few minutes. Pets welcome. Liveaboards welcome.
