Deck the Hulls | The Newport Beach Parade of Lights
The 106th Christmas Boat Parade which is hosted by the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce is going to be held from December 17,2014 to December 21, 2014. At the Christmas Boat Parade, you view beautifully decorated yachts, boats, kayaks and canoes cruise along the Newport Beach Harbor. It is a site to be seen and the yachts are amazing, Additionally homes are decorated and it is called the Ring of Lights. Homeowners and yachts go full out with amazing decorations and lights with generators.
On the opening night of the parade on Wednesday, December 17 at approximately 6:30 pm.
If you are going to watch it,be sure to dress warm and bring something warm to drink like hot chocolate. There will be traffic so I would suggest you arrive early to get to your locale, and parking can be challenging. That is the benefit of watching the boat parade from one of the restaurants that have parking available.
Another option to view the parade, why not consider making a reservation to be on one of the boats. There are also dinner cruises available to view the parade. It is a very festive event, and it is truly amazing to view the decor.
Or if you plan on making reservations, I would recommend doing so now. Below is a list of some restaurants that you may want to consider making a reservation at.
Harborside Restaurant at the Balboa Pavillion
I will update this post as I get more photos of the boats being decorated.
Hope to see you at the Newport Beach Parade of Lights or Christmas Boat Parade.
