As the sun dips toward Galveston Bay, Clear Lake answers with a broad, reflective surface and a cool coastal breeze. The Sunset Tour on Clear Lake is a measured, private cruise that pares away hurry: sailboats and waterfront homes frame the route, birds and the occasional dolphin punctuate the passage, and crew commentary touches on the marshes and local stewardship that shape this portion of the Gulf Coast.
