Below is a list of waypoints for all locations mentioned in this website. A waypoint is the latitude and longitude of a particular location. This information may be useful to any boaters who own GPS receivers or plan to obtain one before boating on Lake Tahoe. Handheld versions are now reasonably priced and a recommended navigation aid if you plan extensive exploration of the lake. Handheld units may also be rented now at Zephyr Cove Marina.
