Santa Claus is planning his 14th annual arrival at Nick’s Cove this winter. For the last 13 years, Santa has arrived by “water sleigh” out at the Boat Shack, but this year will look a bit different since the Boat Shack has not yet been rebuilt.

This year, Santa will be visiting with families at the Waterfront Oyster Bar, complete with festive decor, warming treats, and holiday activities; plus kids, pets and their families will have the chance to visit and take complimentary professional photos with Santa from 1-3pm. The restaurant will be open from 11am to 8pm, serving seasonal specialties in addition to the regular menu.
