If you are planning to go to Nevada Beach for 4th of July, how early do you recommend being at the beach in order to get parking and a good spot (picnic table, grill)?

You'll probably need to be in line when they open for a parking space.

Like I told another inquiry, bring enough 'supplies' to last all day, & some warm clothing items for the evening - it can get very cool, especially with the frequent wind @ Nevada beach. But like the others said, if you want to park inside & pick your spot, early morning. 4th of July is THE most crowded holiday at Tahoe.

Early morning would be better.

Depends were your coming from, but I suggest being there in line at 7:00 am

May be 6am
