The Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce is hosting the 103rd annual Christmas Boat Parade in Newport Beach. The Newport Beach Christmas boat parade will run for five nights and begins on Wednesday, December 14 and ending Sunday, December 18, 2011. The Newport Beach Christmas boat parade starts by Bay Island in Newport Beach, and finishes at the same location at approximately 9:00 pm.
On the last night of the parade on December 18, 2011, there will be fireworks in addition to the parade. And there are awards for the decorations and that is held on January 27, 2012 at the Balboa Bay Club in Newport Beach.
There are many locations to watch the Newport Beach Christmas Boat parade. You can view it from many restaurants including The Chart House in Newport Beach, Rusty Pelican in Newport Beach, Villa Nova or the Balboa Bay Club to name a few. I would recommend making resesrvations for any of the restaurants as they fill up quickly.
It is an incredible parade, and in fact this year Newport Beach made the number two spot for Christmas and holiday lights in the United States. Boat owners decorate their yachts with an incredible array of lights and props. It is something to see.
Hope to see you at the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade!

Sharon,
That is something I would really love to see! I love Chart House restaurants we do not have any here in Houston anymore. We used to have a Rusty Pelican over 30 years ago I used to love it! Please take pictures I would love to go! Have a great day!
Hi Yolanda - I thought I had some from last year but couldn't find them - anyway I will take pictures for sure. There are a number of other restaurants too.
This is even being publicized up here. Sounds like a great event, Sharon. Especially if we have weather like we have been having today.
Sharon, This really sounds like a fun parade to watch! I wish that we were going to be down there to see it! I hope that you take some great pictures of it!

A boat parade in Newport Beach has got to be one of the neat things about living in your part of Southern California. I hope you attend and take lots of pictures to share.
