Jingle all the way aboard a festive sightseeing cruise on Mission Bay! With departures from the Bahia Resort Hotel and the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa, this special voyage is ideal for a holiday gathering with family and friends. First, warm up with a welcome hot cider, while children can delight in a complimentary candy bag, face painting, balloons, and festive crafts. Guests can capture the holiday fun by taking a professional photo with Santa and a printed copy to take home. A cash bar offers seasonal treats and beverages, and carolers fill the air with favorite holiday tunes. Don’t miss this holiday tradition complete with a scenic backdrop of the bay!

Pop the champagne and let the festivities begin. Join us at Covewood for our New Year's Eve Dinner, starting at 5:00 PM to ring in the New Year.
