What you'll do:

You'll board a double decker pontoon and spend four hours cruising the clearest water in the Sierra Nevada, stopping near Emerald Bay and the lake's most scenic shoreline. Your operator handles the navigation — your job is to enjoy the ride.

Board the upper deck – Claim a spot on the top level for panoramic views of Lake Tahoe's granite peaks and deep-blue water as you pull away from the dock.
Ride the water slide – Drop from the deck straight into the lake whenever you're ready — no waiting, no lines, just you and 6,800 feet of elevation.
Anchor near Emerald Bay – Swim, float, or just take it in at one of the most photographed spots in California.
Soak up sun on the lower deck – Spread out on the main level, kick back in the shade, and let the afternoon move at your pace.
Share it with your crew – Whether it's a birthday, a bachelorette, or a long-overdue group trip, the layout fits every mix of swimmers and sunbathers.

Four hours on the water goes faster than you'd expect. This is the kind of afternoon people are still talking about on the drive home.

Why we love it for your party:

Double Decker Layout – Two levels means your group can split up, spread out, and each find their perfect spot on the boat.
Built-In Water Slide – One of the few rentals on Lake Tahoe with a slide onboard — it's the detail that makes the day.
Emerald Bay Access – Your charter route takes you through some of the lake's most iconic scenery, including stops near Emerald Bay.
Private Charter – The whole boat is yours. No strangers, no shared schedules — just your group and the lake.
Experienced Operator Included – Your captain handles everything on the water so your group can fully unplug from the moment you step aboard.
