In this South Lake Tahoe summer guide, I'm sharing the best activities, where to stay (for every budget), and my top picks for coffee houses, bars, and restaurants in South Lake Tahoe.
At the time of this video, I've lived in South Lake Tahoe for almost three years. And before moving here, I would road-trip to Lake Tahoe from LA several times a year. So, I guess you can say I've had some time to experience much of what South Lake Tahoe has to offer.
The hikes, activities, and restaurants mentioned in this post are what I recommend putting at the top of your list when visiting South Lake Tahoe in the summer. Consider this a local's guide to the best things to do in South Lake Tahoe.
P.S. When visiting Lake Tahoe, keep it beautiful by practicing the Principles of Leave No Trace.

Thanks for great suggestions for budget hotel and food options. Just got here on a last minute trip. Did Eagle lake hike today and I have to say it's one of the most picturesque spot anywhere. I will put it near the top of reward/effort ratio for any hike :)

@@GabriellaViola Last September I pass through Carson City on my way to Virginia City. Good looking town. Love how I crossed over into NV it was FJB and pro 2nd amendment bumper stickers and flags everywhere. Looking to leave retarded controlled California in the coming years, not a liberal. Can't be a American here. Criminals have more rights than victims and taxes are just bonkers in Cali. Carson City would be perfect for me, snowboarding in Tahoe, Eastern Sierra to the south, and desert fun to the east.
excellent video
Thank you so much!
As usual you hit it out of the park! Been wondering where you were. The Beacon's RUM RUNNER is one of my favorite drinks on the lake and you can't beat the scenery being right on the beach.Hope to see you on the Rubicon!
Take care. How is the family?
this video ended up taking forever to make ha!!! i wanted to get it out last month..oh well! hopefully ill be a little quicker this summer ...everything is good! i hope your well scott!
I like to hike down to Emerald Bay and rent a kayak there. Put ashore on Fannette Island and climb around. Also cool to kayak from Camp Richardson over toward Baldwin Beach. There are some shallow areas where you can get out and stand. It's kind of cool.
i definitely need to get out at Fannette island next time that sounds so awesome!
Soon Lake Tahoe :))
Proud of you. Wish I could made such kind of videos. But my videos are natural.
That was an excellent video GV. Not to take away from this great video, but ski run used to have ski boat rentals and fishing guides or charter boats for the awesome Lake Tahoe fishing. 4th of July fireworks is way cool coming up too. Just a couple summer things I think about. Oh, did I mention the awesome concerts.
Thank you Angelo I always love your perspective! i still haven't rented a boat yet but i really want to do that this year, and it will be my first time in Tahoe during 4th of july so hopefully it will be fun!
@@GabriellaViola Are you an experienced boat operator? I would not go out without an experienced boat operator. Especially on a busy boating day like the 4th.
@@GabriellaViola Great 4th display but lots of people. Get to your spot early.
Just as I’m thinking about coming up to Tahoe this video pops up. Hmmmm 🤔 it’ll be hot as heck in sac soo why not.
haha its a sign 😄
Hey Gabriella! Loved your video! We will be there the last week of September. Would all trails and parks still be opened then?
Yes everything pretty much stays open year round
I stayed at Mont Bleu (not sure how to spell it off top of my head) about 11 years ago. It was a good deal and lots to do within walking distance. Not sure if they do dinner cruises on the lake anymore but if they I think that would be a good idea to show viewers.
the mont bleu is Ballys now! and yes i love that suggestion, i havent done that yet it sounds so fun!
@@GabriellaViola it's a great way to see the lake and so many mountain views.
Proud of you. Wish I could made such kind of videos. But my videos are natural.
The best activity outdoors in lake tahoe is Backpacking, for me
i havent done any over night hikes yet near Tahoe but def want to try Lake Aloha this year 💙
@@GabriellaViola that was my first backpacking there in summer. But now I like to do backpacking in winter.
Hi there 👋🏼
Thanks for great video 🙌🏼 , how much is the E-bike rentals?
Miss secret cove 😜
I enjoyed watching your videos, it makes me want to go visit Lake Tahoe. Can you do a video on winter Lake Tahoe travel guide
Thank you so much. I have winter guide from last year, im sure ill update it soon: th-cam.com/video/_00ViG3iOMc/w-d-xo.html
❤love the trails😊which you would recommend for a hiker with a knee problems...l can tackle the steep track but, rocky stairs is a no-no😊
Do u have the cabin or lodge contact numbers near Camp Richardson or Pope beach?
Thanks😊 from Malaysia.
I'm driving to south lake tahoe from Houston ,Texas. I'm looking for good authentic food that's native to lake tahoe. I heard the German food is really good 👍. What's some places you recommend to eat and see?
Surely is beautiful there, and please for the love of God and our beautiful planet ..pick up after yourself. PLEASE 🙏
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️
Thanks for the tips! I'm planning to visit the area in a couple of weeks and even though I am driving up there from the southern California area I was planning on just using public transit once there to save on gas and avoid having to fight for parking spaces (and to help minimize carbon pollution while there). Its mentioned in the video that it's not a good idea to depend on taxi or Uber for getting around the beaches and trails. Why is that and does that only apply to those methods of transportation or does it apply to the bus transit as well? I think I read online that Public transit is free right now so that's also a reason I want to take advantage of it. I could still use my rental car if necessary but was hoping to minimize it's use while there. Can anyone advise on this strategy and whether it's recommended or not?
They have something called Link, which is a free bus and I belive that is fine for getting around South Lake Tahoe, ( i havent used it) but if you want to venture out a bit and visit other parts of the lake, I think a a car is probably best.
@@GabriellaViola ah, I see. Well I'll be staying around the Incline Village area so I guess I'll have to use the car after all. Thx for the info!
Hello! Will the clear kayak guides takes our pictures with drones or its just your own drone?
I dont think they take pics with drone but they usually take pictures w regular cameras and iphones
Hi! What can you recommend if you’re travelling with toddler? They just want to swim and play with the sand. Thank you!
Gabriela has video about 5 gorgeous beaches on Lake Tahoe : one of them is Sand Harbor-great for small kids. It has wooden boardwalk, which leads to other nice beaches as well. Check that video.
Zepher beach is also very safe and beautiful( a bit rocky)Have a good time with your little one:)
Couldn't have said it better myself Irina!!! Great reccommendations! thank you 🙏
Yes just like Irina mentioned Sand Harbor and Zephyr are great options for young kids!
Hello Gabriella I was wondering if their was a boat ride in South Lake Tahoe? Also if it’s a yes is their any chance you know the price?And if you can respond before July 1 that would be amazing
I think there is a company called Lake Tahoe Boat Rides that you can rent boats by the hour but i dont knwo their prices
Thank you so much 😊
youre so pretty!!!!
Out of curiosity, is there many bear run ins on hikes?
I have come across a few but only once while out on a trail
According to Google Maps, Alpina Coffee Cafe is permanently closed :(I was looking forward to checking out all of the coffee spots.
I noticed that when i was driving by the other day! I am not sure when they closed but its too bad, super cute coffee house
What are your favorite vegetarian spots to eat around in South Lake Tahoe?
I dont go to vegetarian restaurants, just order vegetarian items off the menu!
best beaches that dont require hiking? im going with my elderly parents!
Sand harbor might be a good bet, there is a fee but you can just walk to beach from the parking lot...it does get ready crowded on summer weekends though
You are so pretty
I am from istanbul I live corson city like 2 years I want comen beck agen I want meet you hellooooooooo from istanbul
You are beautiful 😍
If your budget is not billionaire, move along...
