Topics covered in this section include Armand Bayou Nature Center, Bayou Wildlife Park, Parks, Picnic Areas, Camping, RV Parks
Clear Lake, the "Boating Capital of Texas," offers numerous recreational opportunities. The 19 area marinas provide more than 7,000 boat slips with new ones being added every day. Both power and sailing boats are available for charter or short-term rental. Jet skis, windsurfers, canoes, water ski equipment and parasailing are also available. Many boat ramps as well as bait and fuel stations offer convenience to boaters and fishermen.
Armand Bayou Nature Center http://www.ghg.net/abnc The largest urban wildlife refuge and wilderness preserve in the U.S., stands on 2,500 acres adjacent to NASA/JSC. One of the last undeveloped bayous in Texas, Armand Bayou is one of only four Texas Coastal Preserves. Some 70,000 visitors annually benefit from educational tours, exhibits, events and classes. More than 1,000 acres of wetland habitat and approximately 600 acres of prairie offer a refuge for 370 species of birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians including white-tailed deer, armadillos, swamp rabbits, bobcats, coyotes, poisonous and non-poisonous snakes, turtles, alligators and frogs. Visitors enjoy the melody of songbirds, such as warblers, flycatchers, orioles and painted buntings, and the cry of birds-of-prey, such as osprey, owls and kites. The broad diversity of floral and fauna is due to intermingling of three distinct ecosystems - forest, plain and bayou. Visitors escape the stress of urban life by hiking six trails, delighting in the joys of bird watching, or reliving the past by visiting a recreated farm.
Bayou Wildlife Park: http://onewebstreet.net/BWP/bayourules.html A completely natural setting where a variety of birds and exotic wildlife roam freely through the prairies and woods.
