Outriggers

Outriggers is a Bay Area Houston favorite. This restaurant has one of the best views, delicious seafood, and it floats! This is a great place to relax and watch all the boaters and fisherman. If you own a boat, you can dock here too. On the weekends there is usually live music and dancing on the bottom deck. ($2.00 shrimp and fish tacos on Tuesday too!)

Whatever Floats Your Boat

We enjoyed our weekend by cruising on Clear Lake and Galveston Bay by boat. The sun was out and there were tons of boaters. There was live music at Outrigger's all weekend so everyone was dancing and having a good time. The Boardwalk FantaSea looked like a popular choice this weekend. South Shore Harbour Resort had a good crowd at their pool, too. 






Memorial Day Weekend

We hope everyone had a relaxing and safe Memorial Day weekend and took a moment to thank all the troops who have fought for our country's freedom. The photo below was taken on Saturday at the dedication of the Bay Area Veterans Memorial in Seabrook. www.bayareaveteransmemorial.com

Noah's Ark

It's a beautiful Friday here in Bay Area Houston, so we decided to enjoy it! Noah's Ark is a really cool restaurant on Galveston Bay. Their outdoor patio has a great view and the food is even better! www.noahsarkbarandgrill.com

Happy Hour

I recently went to La Brisa Mexican Grill in League City and tried one of these bad boys for the first time. It was delicious! Not to mention they have some of the best Tex Mex food in the area (their green sauce is my favorite).

Next time you are in the area, go to La Brisa and sit under their huge palapa and enjoy happy hour!

Burger Heaven

Ask any local of Bay Area Houston and ask them the #1 place to get a hamburger and they will tell you... Tookie's! We recommend anyone visiting the area to go to Tookie's and get a cheeseburger with onion rings, you won't regret it! (We go there too often since it is located right next to the visitors center) www.tookiesburgers.com
