The Lighted Boat Parade features 50 beautifully decorated power and sailboats parading through the Santa Cruz Harbor. Limited viewing is available from the Murray Street bridge, from the East Harbor launch ramp, and from a variety of harbor paths. Charter boats are available.

Remember to bring a reusable mug for the hot drinks and snacks available at various locations through the south harbor.

Don’t forget that attending the Lighted Boat Parade qualifies you for a Harboropoly stamp, so be sure to double up your fun!

*Don’t go out to Walton Lighthouse. The parade won’t go that far.
