Welcome aboard Tall Ship Mayflower
for the 117th Newport Beach
Christmas Boat Parade!
Take in all the sights and sounds of the biggest nautical holiday display in existence! The harbor lights up in a cozy blur of color from eighty to over one hundred and twenty vessels decked out with their crew's creativity and all the lights they could get their hands on, in addition to the hundreds of homes each attempting to outdo all the others in competition for awards in the "Holiday Ring of Lights" festival!
Aboard our ship you will be warmed by our "Pirate Barrel" fire-pit, and enjoy complimentary holiday snacks and beverages, while listening to "Christmas Shanties", or your choice of holiday melodies! Above the deck we will have rigged up our sail plan out of rope and string lights rather than our traditional line and canvas which has won us the "Best Sailboat" award many a time!

What Does Lively Schooner Include in a Pirate Ship Birthday Party?
We generally board at 5:30pm, so we are able to cast off and line up before the parade begins, and return to the dock after the parade ends around 9:30/10:00pm, though if needs be we can retire early if your group decides they would like to.
​
You are welcome to bring your own food and drink aboard, and are advised to dress warmly, we will also have blankets available for your use.
