Blessing of the Boats

Muskegon Lake Tradition

Join the Aquastar as we lead the Parade of Boats down the Muskegon Channel and out to Lake Michigan. Enjoy a lively afternoon on the water filled with community spirit, nautical pageantry, and the ceremonial lighthouse washing — followed by the official Blessing of the Boats in South Breakwater Cove. Celebrate the start of another safe and blessed boating season on the lakes we love! 🌊✨
