Don’t have a yacht? No problem. Admire the creativity of the boats all lit up for Christmas in Newport Beach at their annual (several days long!) Christmas Boat Parade. This year’s theme is “Christmas Across the Decades,” and you can see the sparkly ships all along Newport Harbor, with many restaurants boasting views and dining deals. Or take advantage of one of the many boat charters and see the lights from the water. The parade starts and ends at Lido Isle and you can download a printable map here.
