Sunset Divers won the prize for the best-dressed Christmas boat in the Watersports category in Cayman 27 Parade of Lights – for the third time running.

The parade is always a spectacular addition to Camana Bay’s seasonal festivities and this year, the event was better than ever, with a total of 15 boats registering.

Vessels were officially judged on “Wow!” factor, Creativity, Use of Colour, and Overall Impression. The winner of each of the two cateorgies (“Private” and “Watersport”) received CI$2000.

In addition to being decorated with thousands of different coloured lights that danced and sparkled in the harbour, the boats were themed with all kinds of imaginative Christmas images. There was Santa and his helpers, reindeer, angels, and even one nativity scene complete with Mary and Joseph and the little baby Jesus.

One of the boats even had a Charlie Brown and Snoopy theme.

Sadly, only a very few people from the crowd could actually see the spectacle properly, as they were too far away from the water’s edge.

There was, however, plenty more to see earlier during the evening, with music from local band Bona Fide, who sang some holiday favorites, and there was also a wonderful concert from the First Baptist Church Choir who really were in fine voice.

Of course, even if they couldn’t see the lights on all the boats, children loved the lights on the beautiful Christmas Tree, that turns Camana Bay’s Crescent into a Caribbean winter wonderland.

The evening finished off with a breathtaking fireworks display.
