Boat Cruises
All aboard! Schedule a boat cruise through the waters of Lake Tahoe if you’re looking for a unique family activity or want an evening of pure romance. There are several cruise operations in the area, each offering a slightly different experience for guests. If you’re on the south shore, consider taking a ride on the Tahoe Queen. This impressive boat pushes off from the Ski Run Marina and takes guest on a memorable cruise that includes not only a wonderful, up-close view of the lake, but also tales of Tessie, Tahoe’s famous water monster, great music, dancing, and a fine assortment of mouth-watering food. For those staying in Tahoe’s north shore, the Tahoe Gal is the place to be. The area’s only cruise boat, the Tahoe Gal has been taking visitors out on the water since 1994. There are many attractive amenities on this impressive ship, including a full bar. If you’re boarding this baby, you may want to leave the kids behind so you can enjoy a few cocktails and really cut loose. This ship also has wireless Internet if you want to surf while you cruise. Many companies offer morning, midday, and night cruises, with each providing an entirely different experience and perspective of Lake Tahoe and the area surrounding its shoreline. Many assume that a boat cruise is way out of their price range, but there are options for budget-conscious individuals. In fact, some cruises cost as little as $25/person, a true bargain when you consider that you’ll be experiencing some of the best sightseeing anywhere while you hold your lover’s hand and glide smoothly through the astonishingly blue waters of Lake Tahoe.
