Christmas Boat Parade 2011 | Venice Florida

The Christmas Boat Parade 2011 in Venice, Florida was held on the traditional first Saturday in December. Thousands lined the Intracoastal Waterway to catch dozens of vessels spreading their Christmas Cheer in true nautical fashion. The parade route began at the Albee Road bridge near Nokomis Beach and proceeded South to the Circus Bridge near the Venice Airport. Sailing vessels and motor yachts both small and large displayed from simple to elaborate Christmas decorations and lights. Against the darkness of night, the lights were exceptionally beautiful. The children were particularly impressed with the vessel themed with “The Grinch that Stole Christmas.” The best part, was you could watch it wearing shorts and a short sleeved shirt. No winter wear required.
