Cocoa Beach Boat Parade
Saturday, December 14th, 2024
Start Time: 6:00PM
Boat Captain Information
We love hosting our Boat Captains every year and invite all those who would like to participate to come join us! It is always amazing to see the beautiful and well thought-out designs that are showcased in the parade.
Two quick reminders – Please remember that this is a family-focused holiday event, so we ask that you think twice about your design to ensure it aligns with that audience. Also, please don’t throw any candy or other items from your boat – as you can imagine it is quite bad for the wildlife. Thanks!
Registration and Captains Meeting
For you to participate in the awards contest, your boat must be registered and the assigned number easily viewable from shore. Information on the Captains Meeting will be shared once it is available.
