Fourth of July fireworks on Lake Travis and Lake Austin
The Ultimate Way to Watch Fireworks: On a Boat with Float On
When it comes to Fourth of July celebrations, there’s watching fireworks… and then there’s experiencing them from a boat on the lake. At Float On Boat Rentals, we believe the best seat in the house isn’t on land—it’s on the water, surrounded by the buzz of celebration and the shimmer of fireworks reflecting across the lake.
This year, we’re offering unforgettable firework-viewing boat rentals on Lake Austin and Lake Travis—and trust us, there’s no better way to light up your summer.

On July 4th, we’ll head to the north side of the lake between mile markers 15 and 16 to witness the legendary Mattress Mack Fireworks Show, a tradition that draws hundreds of boats for a dazzling display over the water. Both nights, we’ll anchor near Starnes Island, the unofficial gathering spot for boaters to celebrate together.
Why Fireworks on a Boat Just Hits Different
Lake Travis gets rowdy on the Fourth. Music’s loud, boats are everywhere, and the vibe is electric. But when the first firework launches? The whole lake pauses. Everyone stops to watch—and in that moment, it’s magic. Floating on the water, with fireworks bursting overhead and their reflections rippling below, is something you’ll never forget.
Whether you’re watching Fourth of July fireworks on Lake Travis or posted up under the 360 Bridge on Lake Austin, this is next-level celebration.
✨ Why it’s the best way to celebrate:
-
No lawn chairs, no parking stress—just show up, hop on, and enjoy the show.
-
Chill with other fun folks and take in the views—everything’s taken care of.
-
We’ll bring the vibes—you just bring yourself (and maybe a camera for those epic fireworks shots).
