All is merry and bright on our Holiday Boat Parade Paddle!
Sunset Meet and Greet: We'll meet at Dinky Dock Park at sunset to enjoy the gorgeous lake view from the oak-lined park with a white sandy beach. Your guide will assign you to quality and fitted stand up paddleboard gear and give a 10 min safety and paddling technique briefing on land.
Ugly Sweater Contest: Before we launch, you'll get a chance to walk the runway, showing off your ugliest Christmas sweater. The winner gets a $100 gift certificate for a Wave of Wellness Adventure Trip (including the Florida Springs Houseboat Adventure, Punta de Mita Adventure, or Maui Adventure)!
Toy Drive: We'll collect all toy donations for Toys for Tots, spreading joy to needy children during the holiday season. One toy gets you $10 off your entry (see ticket options below), but please bring as many as you want!
Paddle: Then we'll launch into Lake Virginia and paddle to the best viewing location for the Winter Park Boat Parade!
Boat Parade: From our up-close, floating VIP seats, we'll view the parade of brightly decorated boats, lighting up the night and reflecting off the water.
Tour of Lights: Following the parade, we'll paddle around for a close look at the festively-decorated estates surrounding the lake.
Stand Up Paddle Skill Level: Beginner to Advanced - Instruction included, No Experience Necessary. Must know how to swim. Kids 12 years old and under may ride along with a parent for free - please bring your child's life vest.
