Regan Beach - El Dorado Beach

Click here for Regan Beach Photos.

Regan Beach is really more of a lakeside park than a beach. While there is a large area of waterfront, it is not your typical Tahoe beach. There are a number of large watersheds that empty into Lake Tahoe in this area so the water tends to be silty and the bottom almost muddy. The park is very nice, however. There is a playground, volleyball court, wedding ceremony area, and extensive snack bar. This is one of the better places to watch the fireworks; close enough to see them well, but far enough away that your not paralized by traffic when they are over.
El Dorado Beach is several hundred yards east of Regan Beach and is also more like a lakeside park. There is large grassy area but not much in the way of usable beach. There are a number of grills here for barbecuing. Additionally, there is a boat launch here but it is one of the first on the lake to close when water gets lower.
