Sand Harbor, Lake Tahoe

Sand Harbor, Lake Tahoe

Lake

Sand Harbor, on Lake Tahoe's Nevada shore, pairs gently sloping sand beaches with granite boulders and very clear water, and it has been the traditional start of the Olympic Club's Trans Tahoe Relay. The water stays cold all summer, so ease in slowly. From mid-May through September, cars need a day-use reservation, and the park can close when it fills.
