Kings Beach State Recreation Area
Kings Beach State Recreation Area provides a large sandy shore beside the north-shore town. Picnic tables and a playground make it a practical anchor for a relaxed lakeside visit.

This developed waterfront puts the lake close to the town's streets and services. Jeffrey pines shade parts of the picnic area, while the beach opens toward the mountains. It offers a straightforward family-oriented visit and a broader stretch of sand than the smaller boulder coves around Crystal Bay.
