Fall Season in Lake Tahoe

Why is fall the best season for recreating in Lake Tahoe? No crowds, perfect weather conditions and the contrast of golden foliage against the turquoise blue waters! Explore a variety of autumn experiences this season from water to land activities. Don’t miss our bike tours along the summit, salmon run on the Explorer or spooky nighttime kayak tours!

Clearly Tahoe is Lake Tahoe’s original Clear Kayak Tour company offering the widest variety and most unique Clear Kayak experiences on Lake Tahoe.

Paddle along the iconic rocky boulders and experience depths of up to 65 feet on our popular Bonsai Rock Tour or escape the crowds and truly maximize your time on the water with our Clearly Explorer Experience and the only clear kayak tour that departs from South Lake Tahoe, CA!

Clearly Tahoe offers tours and rentals for all ages and skill levels (4+) and an activity that the whole family can enjoy together. Well behaved dogs (under 30lbs) may also be welcome to join us on our original Scenic Shoreline Tour.

We welcome guests to paddle into the afternoon on our LED Glow Tour to experience an array of wildlife or kick-back and relax under the bright night sky on our LED Stargazing Tour.

Discover multiple recreational experiences at Clearly Tahoe including but not limited to; our guided Summit Roots e-bike tour through the forest, boat excursions and back country hiking/snow-shoe tours.

Our Clearly Tahoe Rental concession is located within the Sand Harbor Nevada State Park, one of the most beautiful regions to paddle on Lake Tahoe. Guests can enjoy the picturesque rocky shoreline and turquoise blue waters before they even step off the beach. Clearly Tahoe offers the largest and most diverse rental fleet on Lake Tahoe with walk-up availability daily (wind and weather permitting).

Guests who join us for a Bike Rental can explore miles of paved and unpaved trails, forested lake-viewpoints, beautiful meadows and 2 different lake-access points all within our rental assistance region.

Clearly Amazing!

"Great location, friendly guides, with lots of interesting facts about the local area. Definitely something different from normal kayaks with the clear bottom!"

It was like scuba diving above the water!

"I can't imagine a better first kayaking experience than the day we had with Clearly Tahoe. Jeff and Kelsey are wonderful hosts and their clear kayaks are so cool! Being able to look down between your feet and watch the fish swim under the boat was a special experience."
