A number of Lake Tahoe Beaches are located within the Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) are dog friendly. The LTBMU manages about 75% of the land within the Lake Tahoe Basin. Dogs on a leash are welcome almost anywhere within the LTBMU, with the notable exceptions of designated swimming beaches and areas that are restricted for wildlife protection. While your dog is not allowed on any designated swimming beaches which include Nevada, Pope, Baldwin, Meeks Bay, and William Kent Beaches, there are still plenty of places for both of you to enjoy the water. Dogs are allowed at the Tallac Historic Site from Valhalla Pier to Tallac Point (where the Lake of the Sky Trail meets the lakefront) in South Lake Tahoe; North Beach at Zephyr Cove Resort; Hidden and Chimney Beaches on the east shore; Coon Street Beach in Kings Beach; Ski Beach in Incline Village (from October to April only); and Echo Lakes. Also, the lakes and streams in Desolation Wilderness are another good option.
