Pope Beach

Wide sandy beach, popular with families.

Reviewed By DIRECTORACE

Best Beach in Lake Tahoe just off hwy 89 before camp Richardson. Go early otherwise you will not get in or have to wait in a long lines of cars. 8.00 entrance fee but worth it for upkeep of this beautiful area. Staff are wonderful people who make this run smoothly every day. Long sandy beach with plenty of shade if needed. Picnic tables and rentals of kayaks, paddle boards, etc. usually a food truck in parking lot as well. Plenty of bathrooms and clean shoreline with exceptionally clear waters. Great for small children and families. Sorry no pets allowed at this beach, you can take them to Baldwin beach further down road if needed.

My kids loved this beach. It wasn't crowded like many of the others we went to at Tahoe. The wildlife there is an added bonus. Bald Eagles, Osprey, Ducks, and more!!

El Dorado Beach

Reviewed By 7268 - Oakland, United States

El Dorado Beach is one of the first things you see on the lake when approaching from highway 50. It is a beautiful little sandy beach with a stone amphitheater. There's a boat launch. I suppose in the dead of Summer one might want to get in the water here. The water is not crystal clear. there's a good amount of what looks like a green algae on the rocks ride along the waterfront.
