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!
Sail Tahoe Blue cruises focus on sailing and sharing the beauty of Lake Tahoe, we do not offer guided tours. Please note that we will be sailing and that the sailboat is powered by the wind, so our route is wind dependent. We do not sail to Emerald Bay on our public charters, as it is too far of a distance to sail in two hours.

Public transportation options are available nearby
Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
NO infants. Ages 5 and older only.
Sorry pups! Please leave your dogs at home, we do not allow dogs on our public charters.

Justin and Nellie were the best crew! So friendly, relatable, personable and kept our drinks filled up!!! We originally booked for a Wednesday and needed to rebook for the following day due to a shoulder injury. Lisa was quick to reply and accommodated us with no problem with whatsoever. We plan to bring our kids to Lake Tahoe soon and can’t wait for them to experience Sail Tahoe Blue!!! Fastest 2 hours of our entire trip! Highly highly highly recommend!
