Every year people line the Fell’s Point waterfront to catch a glimpse of the festive and colorful lighted boat parade. The boats originate from the Anchorage Marina in Canton and slowly make their way along the waterfront towards the Inner Harbor. This favorite Baltimore Christmas tradition usually passes by Fell’s Point around 6 p.m., right after we light the neighborhood tree and is a great way to settle in after a day of walking around enjoying the festivities. This family-friendly event is not to be missed and features different kinds of boats decorated in many themes.
