North Tahoe Beach is an easy to access beach in Kings Beach. There is a parking lot and picnic area right next to the beach, and a Safeway across the main road. The beach offers great views of Lake Tahoe and a unique Lake Tahoe sculpture. Nice family beach if not wanting to adventure to far from Kings Beach.

Fun little beach area on the north shore near kings beach. Area is fairly rocky with some sand areas. But a great location to put in a kayak or paddleboard or to have a family picnic, play some beach volleyball or to soak up some sun (in the summer).

Had a blast over 4th of July while here. The beach was PACKED! But my kids had a blast and we couldn't be happier. We saw happy families, boats, paddle boarders, water bikes, jet skis and parasailers! We had so much fun here and can't wait to go back!

A free beach in North Lake Tahoe with not much recreational or lounging area but beautiful views. Great proximity to tourist attractions in the area. You’re bound to see birds enjoying the views with you!
