Clermont Chain Of Lakes Lighted Boat Parade

The South Lake Elks Club is holding its annual Lighted Boat Parade on Saturday, December 2 at sunset.

Boats participating in the Boat Parade will gather in Lake Minnehaha on the northwest side of the lake. This is the area in front of Cypress Cove (10233 Cypress Cove Land, Clermont). 

Look for the large barge-type boat with a flashing light. This is where the Elks Club will be collecting, new unused toys and items for Santa’s Shack in South Lake County. The collected items will stay locally and be given to families in the community (giveaway details will be updated as the date approaches).

Boats will start by passing Cypress Cove Marina heading South and circling Lake Minnehaha counter-clockwise then through Lake Palatlakaha, Lake Hiawatha and into Lake Minneola circling Lake Minneola counterclockwise. The boats usually take at least 1.5hr to get to Lake Minneola. NO WAKE SPEED the entire time.
 

Normally, the lighted boat parade begins at dark (around 6:00 – 6:30 pm) and ends with a pit stop for many at Lake Minneola Inn – Tiki Bar & Grill, 508 S. Main Ave. Minneola. 

Find a comfortable spot to sit on the public shoreline on Lake Minnehaha or Lake Minneola.
