Wednesday, October 20th, the waters of Marina del Rey will be brimming with ghoulishly good times as costumed paddlers take part in the Marina Monster Paddle Parade. A Halloween celebration that mixes fun, creativity, and a touch of spooky magic on the water.
The Sunset Paddle Cruise: Where Halloween takes to the Water
As the sun begins to dip, the Marina Monster's minions will emerge for a paddle parade of epic proportions, with paddlers transforming into everything from sea creatures to fantastical figures. Light & shadow play on the water, with the last rays of sunlight casting a dramatic glow over the costumes. The peaceful pace of the paddle offers everyone a front-row seat to this floating spectacle of creativity.
