Seattle has all sorts of amazing holiday traditions from the Nutcracker to Christmas Ships to Magic in the Market. If you happen to own a boat and are looking for ways to partake in the season, we have an event for you. This year, you can join in the Seattle Christmas Boat Parade and here’s how.
The Seattle Christmas Boat Parade is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Boat owners come together each year on Lake Union for an official parade full of maritime joy. Boaters wow onlookers from the shore and also cruise by judges to determine just who has the best light displays.
