5 hours
You will be aboard a 26 ft Four Winns HD8 Wake Surf Edition. For details on each boat please visit here.
Your private charter can accommodate up to 10 people (plus captain). All charters are led by a USCG certified captain, ensuring your safety and enjoyment. Fuel costs are included in the package, but please remember gratuity for our captains is not included and highly appreciated.
While Wake Surfing is available throughout the day on all charter times, early morning times are HIGHLY recommended in order to have the best experience and the smoothest water!
For parties over 6 passengers USCG Regulations require each charter to be a Bareboat Charter. Bareboat Charters require the captain to be paid separately IN ADDITION to the charter fee. For full details of Bareboat Charters please visit here.
Parties of 6 or less are NOT considered a Bareboat Charter and all captain fees are included in the charter cost.
Each guest, no matter the age, count as passenger.
We'll take you to some of the best spots on Lake Tahoe including Emerald Bay, Vikingsholm Castle, Fannette Island, DL Bliss State Park among others. While we have our favorite spots, your itinerary can be customized if time and weather permit.
Pack essentials like sunscreen, sunglasses, a camera, and a jacket or sweatshirt as it can get chilly on the lake. If you're up for a dip, bring a towel and swimsuit. Feel free to plug in your phone and play your favorite tunes, or let our captain DJ for you. Water is provided, and you're welcome to bring your own food and drinks. A cooler or refrigerator is provided for convenience.
To ensure everyone's safety and comfort, we kindly ask that guests refrain from bringing glass, red wine or overly messy foods. Please note that pets are not allowed on the charters.
We recommend guests arrive at the marina at least 30 minutes before the charter (longer on weekends and holidays) and at the boat 15 minutes prior. Late arrival WILL shorten your time on the lake.
All charters start and end in the Tahoe Keys Marina located in South Lake Tahoe, CA.
Getting on the water earlier allows for better lighting and fewer crowds, enhancing your wake surf adventure.
Bring quick-drying swimwear and sunscreen to stay comfortable and protected during your time on the water.
A day on the lake can be dehydrating, so pack plenty of water and easy snacks to keep energy levels high.
Summer weekends fill quickly, so reserve your private charter early to secure your preferred date and time.
Lake Tahoe has been a popular recreation spot for centuries, with Native tribes historically inhabiting the region long before it became a top outdoor destination.
