Celebrate the holidays Crystal Coast style with this annual event that entices locals and visitors alike to get into the holiday spirit. The Swansboro Christmas Flotilla is a time-honored tradition that combines Swansboro’s love of life on the water with a truly festive atmosphere, and the event is sure to become an annual celebration that Crystal Coast visitors will want to return to again and again.

Santa Claus often makes an appearance during the annual event, and the dazzling lights and décor of the boats will be a favorite memory for vacationers of all ages. A fun event that the whole family will enjoy, the annual Swansboro Christmas Flotilla rings in the season with a dose of coastal flair.
