Cruise Through Fort Lauderdale’s Festive Waterways This Holiday Season
Sea Rocket’s Christmas Lights Cruises sail the sparkling canals of Fort Lauderdale, known as the Venice of America, every night from Thanksgiving through New Year’s. Experience the magic of the season as the Sea Rocket glides past some of Fort Lauderdale’s most exclusive neighborhoods along the Intracoastal Waterway and New River. Holiday lights transform waterfront mansions into glowing spectacles of Christmas cheer. Many homes are decorated with thousands of twinkling lights, elaborate displays, and festive scenes built to be admired from the water.
The open-air Sea Rocket offers a front-row seat to it all. A crew member narrates the route while holiday music sets the mood beneath the stars. Guests can grab a drink from the onboard bar to toast the season, and the captain slows near the most dazzling homes so everyone can snap the perfect photo.
