Hands down 👍 my favorite beach in Tahoe yet!!! Be careful the sand in super thick! And super hot!! But even though there is limited parking the guests rotate in and out. You have your early bird leaving around 11/12 and then you a new group come in and stay till 3 or later. We left at 4pm and there was not only ZERO traffic coming home (miracle living in an active construction 🚧 zone called “California” (*cough, cough…I mean Reno 🤣🙄) but even as we left at 4 more people were coming in! It has a beautiful pier and you can walk Soo far out before you ever end up to your waist/ chest!! Perfect for kiddos to play in the sand and the rocks are stunning!!! 🤩 ok let’s be honest Tahoe is gorgeous from just about any view, But we did not feel like we were at a lake that’s for sure!

Nice sandy dune beach. Hidden behind a metal structure (see pictures to easily find it). It’s June 3rd 2023. It’s crowded and loud with people’s music and partying. Not my style. Street parking.

Tahoe anywhere has become a nightmare. Overflowing parking into no-parking zones. Standstill traffic. And crowds. If you can handle that, you'll enjoy yourself I suppose.

Best beach in Tahoe. White sand like the ocean. Parking is tough, but the walk is worth it.

The sand was so soft, I grew up here so I grabbed a mason jar of the sand to remember this special place
