Day Trips from Portland: Newport Lighted Boat Parade

The 14th Annual Lighted Boat Parade happens on Saturday, December 6th in Newport’s Historic Bay Front. The holiday boat parade will include commercial fishing boats, charter boats and sail boats decorated for the holidays. Newport’s Lighted Boat Parade can be viewed from 5-6:30 p.m on the 6th. Many commercial fishing boats keep their Christmas lights going well after the holiday boat parade, so if you’re anywhere on the coast with a view, you’ll see them twinkling on the ocean at nighttime.
