Get the most stunning view of Lake Tahoe, especially Emerald Bay, from Inspiration Point. Parking can get very crowded, but people don't stay long. A MUST visit if you're headed to South Bay during your stay!

Emerald Bay is stunning! A hiking trail is also there. Take panoramic pictures of the bay. Some parking but may be full.

Great View of Emerald Bay. Right across the street is a good sledding spot too

A great overlook of the bay. There are lots of great little vistas to stop at around the bay. They are always very crowded so get there early. Sunsets are amazing too, so going late in the day is also an option. Since it is at the opposite end of the lake, keep in mind you will have a 45 minute drive back.
