Dive Into Lake Tahoe’s Paddle Boarding Culture – And Your Dream Home in Incline Village

Incline Village & Crystal Bay Market Update | July 23, 2025

Recreation is woven into the fabric of Lake Tahoe’s vibrant Summer culture, from biking and hiking to swimming and boating. Paddle boarding is no exception, taking center stage in the lake’s sports scene. Each year, events like the Paddle Jam, Downwind Championships, and the Tahoe Cup—fondly known as The Crossing by locals—bring the community together. Picture family and friends lining the beaches or cruising the lake in boats, cheering on competitors as they paddle to victory. These exciting events are on the calendar through September 2025, making now the perfect time to immerse yourself in the action.

For those lucky enough to call Incline Village or Crystal Bay home, these events are right in your backyard. These bustling communities are the ideal base for enjoying Lake Tahoe’s outdoor lifestyle. If you’re a local, you already know the joy of launching your paddle board from one of Incline Village’s private beaches—Ski Beach, Incline Beach, or Burnt Cedar. Personally, we’re partial to Incline Beach, where you can paddle along the East Shore’s iconic boulders. From this vantage point, we’ve had the privilege of watching Merganser ducks dive and flap their wings underwater—a breathtaking scene that’s even more magical from a stand-up paddle board.

But here’s the real magic: owning a home in Incline Village or Crystal Bay means this lifestyle isn’t just a vacation—it’s your everyday reality. And now is a great time to make that dream a reality.
