Lake Tahoe, CA
With crystal-clear water that reflects the color of the sky, California’s breathtaking North Lake Tahoe is North America’s largest alpine lake and the second-deepest lake in the United States.
Here, recreational opportunities abound for water lovers, who can enjoy boating, sea-kayak tours, sunset-sailing tours, lakeside picnics, invigorating lake swims, water skiing and jet skiing. Surrounding Lake Tahoe, the Sierra Nevada mountains offer hiking, fishing, golfing and mountain biking in the summer - and in the winter, seven alpine ski resorts and seven cross-country ski resorts draw visitors from all over the world.

Dining, shopping, sightseeing and gambling on the lake’s Nevada side make Lake Tahoe perfect for year-round fun.
