Lake Tahoe: The Best SUP Destination On Earth?

When you live to paddle board like we do, you're always embroiled in a debate about the ultimate SUP destination. Hawaii, the Bahamas, Costa Rica, San Diego, the Florida Keys ... the list goes on. But the one destination we think absolutely has to be considered in the endless debate is Lake Tahoe. We dug through the archives and reached out to a handful of our ambassadors to find 12 photos that we believe prove Tahoe is a bonafide paddler's paradise.

Paddling with friends and family always makes the adventure that much more memorable. But when your best friend Jack the dingo is also part of your family, the memories are made to last a lifetime. Here's Ambassador Samantha Eastburn living her best life on Limited Edition Glider.

Paddling may be the name of the game, but there's nothing wrong with lounging around the shoreline with your crew in Tahoe where the shallow waters are a bit warmer and more inviting. But it definitely looks like that Megalodon has room for a few more friends.

The snow-capped mountains, cotton candy clouds, vibrant green trees, ancient spotted boulders, and stunningly clear cobalt blue water -- we always have a difficult time picking the one thing we like the most about Tahoe. Our friends at the Outdoor Project found their adventure rather easily once they jumped aboard an ISLE Discovery inflatable stand up paddle board.
