Christmas Boat Parade

Christmas Boat Parade courtesy of the largest charter fleet in Florida. A sparkling procession of festively bedecked boats parade through Destin harbor as locals and visitors wave merrily from beaches, harbors, bridges, decks and docks.

An array of beautiful floats and marching bands line the streets during this parade as Christmas music fills the air with carols and tides of the holiday spirit.

If you're not from a "coastal community, the Destin Christmas Boat Parade is an exciting and visually spectacular way to get in the holiday spirit...even in Florida! The sparkling procession of festively adorned boats is a Christmas favorite as locals and visitors wave merrily from the beaches, harbors, bridges and docks. Christmas music fills the air as an array of beautiful twinkling boats float idly by...every single light magically mirrored in the water below...it's a wonderfully unique event that the whole family will enjoy.
