Sail Tahoe Blue is the premier sailing charter in South Lake Tahoe. We offer a unique sailing adventure and include complementary local beer and wine, as well as non-alcoholic beverages on all of our daily cruises.
Unlike other tour boats which take 50+ passengers, our sailing yacht, "Blue", limits our capacity to 18 passengers. If you care to enjoy the beauty of propulsion by Mother Nature without the sound and smell of an engine, come sail with us!

Super fun trip out onto the lake! We didn’t want it to end! The smaller group size and the attentive crew made for the perfect way to see Tahoe from the water!

Very relaxing, low key and friendly. The crew was very attentive. Most importantly, we actually sailed and didn’t just putter around.

It was my first time on a sail boat. The experience was perfect. The owner, crew were very friendly and welcoming. They were professional, fun, and always kept our safety in mind. The small grouping made the experience so much better.

It was a very enjoyable experience. The crew were very attentive to the passengers and spent time with each person. We accidentally left a jacket on the boat and the captain came looking for us to give it to us.
