Palm Coast’s Holiday Boat Parade sets sail on December 13, 2025, along the Intracoastal Waterway at 6 p.m., and there’s still time to hoist the anchor and sign up!

There is no entry fee, and the deadline for registration has been extended until Monday, December 1, 2025. Boat captains can register to participate by visiting https://form.typeform.com/to/GjQgGYOX.  

For spectators, the parade is FREE! Palm Coast Ford will offer complimentary shuttle service from the European Village and the Daytona State College Palm Coast Campus parking lot from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Parking at Waterfront Park is limited and drivers will be directed to the Daytona State College Palm Coast Campus once full.

The parade route begins at the Cimmaron Basin, proceeds south under the Hammock Dunes Bridge to the Grand Haven Gazebo, where participants will turn around and return to their home ports.

Ideal viewing spots for the dazzling display include Waterfront Park, St. Joe’s Walkway, and Canopy Walk.

The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit and Florida Fish and Wildlife will be on hand to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable time at this year’s Holiday Boat Parade.
