After an introductory kayaking lesson on shore, we head out onto the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tahoe for a relaxing paddle. Once on the water, we leave the crowds behind and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Your guides will share fascinating insights about the lake’s ecology, geology, and human history as we float along. Depending on lake conditions, you may paddle along the coast of King’s Beach and among the boulders of Crystal Bay, or explore the scenic shoreline toward Carnelian Bay, all while glimpsing some of Tahoe’s most stunning waterfront homes. Along the way, we’ll pause for a fresh deli lunch on the water, making this a leisurely and satisfying adventure for the whole family. The views of the surrounding peaks are breathtaking, and our floats always travel with the prevailing winds, giving you the perfect combination of fun and relaxation.

What a great time! Easy to book through their website, good reminder emails prepping us for our day. We kayaked out to see the lake which was beautiful. Johannes was an excellent guide and gave us a lot of great history and information about Tahoe. We ended up taking a break at a small beach with a rock formation that we scrambled on and jumped off into the water for a swim - water is cool, refreshing and amazingly clean. On the way back we stopped at a beach for lunch - Johannes brought out a sandwich spread which really hit the spot. A really great relaxing time with wonderful memories. After the trip was done Johannes gave us photos he took for us which was a really nice touch. He also went above and beyond when he later warned us about a fire near we were staying - we had no idea - super thankful as there was an evacuation warning in place. Thanks Johannes and TAC!!
