Aerial Photos — Lake Travis Level 640′

West Beach Marina is Best for Low Lake Travis Water Level

Here are some aerial photos of marinas, landmarks and popular boating spots with the Lake Travis level at 640′ above Mean Sea Level (MSL). As you can see, many of these Austin-area marina facilities have challenges keeping their docks and boat slips in the water when the lake is down. Briarcliff Marina, Commander’s Point, Hurst Harbor, Lakeway Marina and Rough Hollow are particularly vulnerable to variations in the Lake Travis level. This is primarily due to their locations on narrow creeks or shallow inlets. When the lake level drops, these creeks and inlets are high and dry.
