PETALUMA, CA — With thousands of people lining its banks, the Petaluma River shined bright Saturday night during the return of the annual Holiday Lighted Boat Parade hosted by the Petaluma Yacht Club. Watercraft of all types, from stately yachts to sailboats to stand-up paddleboards, were decorated with holiday lights that reflected off the water — a memorable way to celebrate the holiday season. The festive boats made their way from the Petaluma Marina to the Turning Basin for all to see. Over the east banks, Saint Nick and Mrs. Claus made a special stop at a VIP event that featured carolers and a dance performance by local entertainers on a synthetic ice rink. Children dressed as penguins skated on stage with Santa. Enjoy our photo gallery above! ALSO SEE: Photos: Napa Lighted Christmas Parade Brings Santa Claus To Town
