If parasailing isn’t on your Tahoe bucket list, it should be. The exhilaration of experiencing jaw dropping panoramic views with clear blue skies on the horizon and deep blue Tahoe water below, as you literally fly through the air 500 feet high, is something you will never forget.

Zephyr Cove’s experienced and licensed captains and crew will safely float you out from their state-of-the-art parasailing boat and let you enjoy the unparalleled and spectacular views of Lake Tahoe.

Parasailing starts and ends dry, which means that although you’re soaring over the lake, you take off and land gently back onto the boat — no water landings here. When your turn comes, you’ll step to the back of the boat where the crew will strap you safely into the sail. From there, the crew will slowly extend the parasail until it reaches its full height. Once in a lifetime photo opportunities await as you experience what can only be described as a surreal feeling of soaring gently through the Lake Tahoe skies.

Solo and tandem flights are available. If heights aren’t your thing, or you have a friend or family member who wants to join without the thrill, observers are allowed to ride along for a nominal fee.
