Santa & Friends Come to Town!

Santa Claus is coming to town–by boat! A sight that will warm your heart and bring a big smile to your face. For 30 years, families and friends have witnessed this unique and enchanting arrival of Santa, Mrs. Claus, elves, and even a jolly lobster aboard the Novelty. 

But the fun doesn’t stop there! Once Santa steps ashore, he will be making his way to the Giant Pot Bouy Tree where children can meet him, and share their Christmas wishes. From the youngest to the oldest, everyone is invited to join in this joyous celebration and create memories that will last a lifetime. Waiting families will have a chance to enjoy activities and warming stations.

The merry crew arrives at 3 PM at the public landing the Whale Park – You can visit with Mr & Mrs. Claus and a host of their friends at Pier One in Boothbay Harbor by the Giant Pot Buoy Tree.

Take photos and chat with Santa from 3:15 – 5:00 PM then grab a bite to eat, and do some holiday shopping while you wait for the Lighted Boat Parade & Fireworks to begin!

This is an event you won’t want to miss, so gather your loved ones and get ready to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year in true coastal style. Ho, ho, ho!
