Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade - Newport Landing Cruises

Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade

Newport Landing Cruises

 

If you have spent several years (or even none) watching the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade from the sidelines, you may have wondered what it is like to actually cruise Newport Harbor and be out amongst the lights.

If that is the case and you don't have a boat readily available to you, you might consider joining one of Newport Landing's cruises during the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade.

 Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade

This year the boat parade runs from December 14 to December 18, 2011, and Newport Landing has two hour cruises each night. Each of the boats is fully decorated and travels with the parade allowing you to enjoy both the boats and the beautifully decorated homes along the bay.

The price is $36 for adults and $31 for children. Please contact 949-675-0551 to book your special Christmas cruise.

If you prefer a private cruise, those are also available through Newport Landing.

 

For a wonderful dining experience, please see Newport Landing Sunset Dinner Deals.

This event is so much a part of my family's holiday that I can't remember a year that we didn't attend the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade to enjoy the lights with family and hot chocolate.  And, make sure that you dress warmly.  I'm always amazed at just how cold it get standing out on the bay at that time of year to enjoy the Boat Parade.

 

If you do attend, please be sure to let me know how you enjoyed it and post your photos below.
