HOLIDAY BOAT PARADE
The annual Naples Bay Christmas Boat Parade will be held at Tin City on Saturday, 12/10/11, beginning at 6 p.m. Both commercial and personal watercrafts will participate and, for the first time, a new category of restaurant-sponsored boats will float across the bay for your viewing pleasure. Tin City Magic will be OPEN from 10-9 Saturday to serve you for all of your magic and gift needs!
Sponsored by the Marine Industries Association of Collier County, the 2008 theme is "Deck the Hulls with Holiday Lights ." Boat owners have shown incredible originality and ingenuity in past years, dressing up their boats as Christmas trees and Santa's sleds among the others, and this year promises to be no different.
The boats will parade through Naples Bay in front of Tin City — a great spot to watch them go by and take some pictures and video! Want to have dinner or drinks while you enjoy the show? Pincher's Crab Shack and the Riverwalk Restaurant have great views of the path the boats will follow.
Want a wonderful spot on the water for viewing? Cruise Naples is offering a sunset cruise, as well as an evening cruise, where you can enjoy the boat parade while cruising in style! Call (239) 263-4949 for more information and to reserve your cruise!
The annual event raises money for the Ricky King Children's Fund, providing money for medical needs of less-fortunate children in the community.
And speaking of kids: Santa and Mrs. Claus will trade in their sleigh for the evening and will hitch a ride on the Sweet Liberty catamaran. So tell the kids to watch out, they'll have a chance to catch a glimpse of Santa and his missus!
