Sail Tahoe Blue is the premier sailing charter in South Lake Tahoe. We offer a unique sailing adventure and include complementary local beer and wine, as well as non-alcoholic beverages on all of our daily cruises.
Unlike other tour boats which take 50+ passengers, our sailing yacht, "Blue", limits our capacity to 18 passengers. If you care to enjoy the beauty of propulsion by Mother Nature without the sound and smell of an engine, come sail with us!
Sail Tahoe Blue cruises focus on sailing and sharing the beauty of Lake Tahoe, we do not offer guided tours. Please note that we will be sailing and that the sailboat is powered by the wind, so our route is wind dependent. We do not sail to Emerald Bay on our public charters, as it is too far of a distance to sail in two hours.

Public transportation options are available nearby
Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
NO infants. Ages 5 and older only.
Sorry pups! Please leave your dogs at home, we do not allow dogs on our public charters.

My husband and I took the midday 2 hour sailing trip on Sail Tahoe Blue. Our trip was fabulous! The views of the lake are spectacular. Shout out to Justin & David for making our trip so wonderful and giving us great info about the lake! We would highly recommend taking this sailing trip with Sail Tahoe Blue!

Loved it!!! Crew very friendly and knowledgeable about Tahoe. I would do this again when I come back. The only thing I missed is the music could not hear it. Some smooth jazz or something light enhances the scenery.

We had the best time sailing around with David and Kyle. They were made sure we were safe and had the best time out on the lake. Will definitely be doing that again, it was the best way to relax and enjoy South Lake from a different vantage point.

This sailing experience was so worth it! The crew was awesome and very knowledgeable; they took us out pretty far and provided us with cold drinks and info about the lake, surrounding mountains and gave us tips on places to check out. Would definitely do this again!
