Summer Romance in South Lake Tahoe
There are plenty of things for couples to do in South Lake Tahoe during the summer. Whether you’re looking to explore the great outdoors, admire the views from a helicopter, or indulge in a relaxing sunset cruise, South Lake Tahoe will provide you with everything you need for a romantic getaway. While the list goes on and on, here are some of our favorite romantic things to do in Lake Tahoe this summer.
Heavenly Gondola Ride
Just steps away from the resort, hop on the Heavenly Gondola. The 2.4-mile ride up Heavenly Mountain will leave you mesmerized by the panoramic views of Lake Tahoe. On your way to the top, stop at the observation deck for photos or for a coffee break at Café Blue. Once you arrive atop the mountain, explore hiking trails for all skill levels.
Helicopter Tour
Looking for a more epic date idea? Experience Lake Tahoe like no other — from above! Tahoe Helicopters offer six different tours ranging in price, length, and destination. Choose between a shorter ride touring the lakes and waterfalls or opt to circle the entire lake. For something more romantic, consider the Lake Tahoe Sunset Tour, and enjoy the breathtaking views with your partner by your side.
Sunset Dinner Cruise
Indulge in a romantic experience with Lake Tahoe Sleigh Rides, offering private, narrated horse-drawn tours. Your enchanting journey commences at the Sand Harbor Visitors Center, where you'll bask in the breathtaking vistas of Lake Tahoe from South Beach. Traverse through the towering pines of the peaceful Enchanted Forest before returning to Grandma's Cottage, where delectable treats and steaming hot chocolates await you.
Spend the Day at Secret Cove
Secret Cove, a hidden gem nestled within Lake Tahoe’s breathtaking shoreline, offers couples the ideal escape to a truly enchanting destination. While its secrecy may have faded over time, the allure remains intact. Located just a 10-minute drive south of Incline Village in Nevada you’ll find pristine turquoise waters reminiscent of Greek Islands. Undoubtedly, Secret Cove stands among the top beach spots in Tahoe, making it an idyllic setting for couples to cherish each other's company.
Balloon Ride
Embark on an unforgettable adventure aboard the Tahoe Flyer, the world's only balloon launch and recovery vessel. Rise above Lake Tahoe at sunrise, capturing stunning views of Emerald Bay, Fallen Leaf Lake, Cascade Lake, and the breathtaking Desolation Wilderness. On clear days, glimpse the peaks of Yosemite and the coastal foothills miles away. Conclude your hot air balloon flight with an impressive landing on the upper deck of the Tahoe Flyer, where the crew expertly catches and deflates the balloon. Celebrate this extraordinary experience with a traditional champagne toast while cruising back to the Marina.
