Watch the sun rise over the mountains as we head out on a signature kayak adventure. Discover why Lake Tahoe’s East shore is considered one of the most pristine shorelines. Hidden beaches, secret coves and water clarity levels that reach down to 70 feet below are just a few of the highlights. Steep Sierra mountains and in water boulders provide the perfect backdrop for our morning paddle. Take a break at a secluded beach and soak in the sun, enjoy a swim or snorkel (gear provided). Throughout your time kayaking we’ll discuss Lake Tahoe’s fascinating history and some of the savory characters that made this area home.

Discover Emerald Bay. Set out in the morning on a paddling journey through Tahoe’s blue waters. Travel along towering mountains as they descend into the lake. Enjoy views of Mount Tallac as we make our way to the mouth of Emerald Bay. Keep your eyes open throughout the trip. This stretch of shoreline provides some of the best opportunities to view osprey and bald eagles.  Upon entering Emerald Bay you’ll be greeted by the region’s iconic glacier carved mountains. We’ll kayak over and explore Fannette island (Lake Tahoe’s only island), and learn about Vikingsholm Castle as we take a well deserved break on the adjacent beach. This trip is considered moderate to strenuous and previous experience is recommended.

Travel by kayak and take in the Tahoe sunset. Set out on the East Shore for the perfect vantage point as the sun sets behind the mountains. This is the perfect time to experience Lake Tahoe’s calm waters and shorelines as they were meant to be. Empty. We’ll set out early enough to capture the whole show. Paddle along beautiful shorelines as the sun paints the sky with shades of pink, red and orange. Take a short stop at an expansive beach, complete with Tiki bar to enjoy the finale. On the way back, we may capture the stars just beginning to show themselves before night falls.

If you’re a night owl, we have the kayaking experience for you. Get out on the water as the full moon crests over the mountains and lights up Lake Tahoe’s water. Enjoy calm waters and silence as we paddle under the stars. Travel alongside forested shorelines and into grassland tributaries. Shore up the kayaks on a deserted beach and take the opportunity to howl at the moon.  This is a timeless experience.
