Blessing of the Fleet
Sunday, July 5
11:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Town Wharf
The Blessing of the Fleet is a centuries-old
tradition originating in southern European,
fishing communities. A blessing from the
local priest was meant to ensure a safe and
bountiful season.

Onlookers enjoy a parade of boats, as
owners and their families line up to have
their vessels blessed before setting out for
an afternoon on the water.
