Ugly Sweater Christmas Cruise

Dust off the ugliest sweater you own. Yes, the one with the light-up reindeer. The Coastal Collective is taking the holiday party out on the water, and we'd love for you to come along.

We're teaming up with our friends at St. Augustine Boat Tours for a one-hour cruise around St. Augustine with Captain Kev at the helm. Bring a drink and a snack to share on the boat, meet some rad local business owners, and see the Ancient City from the best seat in town.

Once we're back on land, we'll head over to Hornski's Brewing Co. for holiday drinks. It's a sweet way to keep the conversation going and give some love to the local businesses and friends who make St. Augustine feel like home. Fleece Navidad, y'all.

• 2:45 PM: Check in at the dock. The boat leaves right at 3:00 PM and can't wait for stragglers.
• 3:00 to 4:00 PM: Cruise around St. Augustine with Captain Kev.
• After the cruise: Holiday drinks at Hornski's Brewing Co., just steps from the Bridge of Lions.

• Your ugliest holiday sweater. The tackier, the better.
• A drink and a snack to share on the boat. It's BYOB, and the more we pass around, the merrier!
• A little cash for tipping Captain Kev. Tips are always appreciated.

Park for free on the north side of the Conch House Restaurant. Walk out onto the main dock and look for our boats on the right side. One has a yellow and white top, and the other has a red, white and blue top. Walk to the bar, turn right through the tiki torches beside it, then head down the ramp to the boats.

Heads up, the Bridge of Lions is a drawbridge that opens on the hour and the half hour. If you're coming from or through downtown, give yourself a little extra time. Carpooling is a great idea if you can swing it!

• Be early. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before departure. Boats leave exactly at 3:00 PM and won't wait for late arrivals. Missing the boat counts as a no-show, with no refund or rescheduling.
• Drink responsibly. The Captain won't let anyone who appears intoxicated board the boat, and there's no refund if that happens. Pace yourself, carpool or grab a rideshare, and get home safe.
• No refunds, but tickets are transferable. Can't make it? Pass your ticket along to a friend and send us a message so we can update the name.
• Only 42 spots. Ticket sales close December 6 or when we sell out, whichever comes first, so we can lock in the boat.

We can't wait to sea you out there!
