Lake Tahoe Boat Rentals
The best way to see Lake Tahoe is from the water. This pristine body of water, the largest alpine lake in North America, is best enjoyed from the center of the lake where visitors can take in the immensity of the lake and the majesty of the surrounding mountains. Fortunately there a large number of boat rental businesses operating in the Lake Tahoe area to make sure you get to experience this marvel of nature.
The north side of Lake Tahoe has several prominent boat rental businesses operating. Action water sports rents Winns and Sunscapes, the fastest motorboats on the lake. The High Sierra Water ski school can teach you how to ski behind them and also have a pontoon party boat for rental and can arrange charters. For those who want a bird’s eye view of Lake Tahoe, King’s Beach aqua sports offers parasailing lessons as well as speedboat rentals. Whether jumping the wake or watching the wave’s from high in the sky, there are plenty of speedboat rentals on Lake Tahoe.

For those who want a quieter experience of the lake, sailboats can be had for rental on both sides of Lake Tahoe. Whether a master seaman who needs just a fine sailing ship and a star to steer her by, or a first time pleasure boater who would rather let someone else trim the stays, there is a boat to suit your style.
A long leisurely paddle around the lake in a canoe might sound like hard work to some, a perfect way to enjoy a summer day on the water to others. The available water guides can make sure you get to the right place in your self-propelled craft, whether out for a day trip or off to a secluded campsite for a few days. Kayaks are equally accessible at most rental places as are paddleboats and aqua cycles.
The Truckee River offers a chance to experience the thrill of white water rafting. The scenic Lake Tahoe forest provides the backdrop for a sometimes hair-raising and always fun trip down this turbulent stream in a six person water raft. The trip culminates in a meal at the River Ranch, an idyllic location for a fine meal after an exciting day of outdoor adventure.
Whatever the style of boat or the type of experience you wish to have, there is something for everyone at Lake Tahoe.
