Looking for a festive new tradition this year? Look no further! The only thing better than cruising around our beautiful island in your own golf cart is doing it at night and watching the scenery light up with joyous Christmas decorations, hot cocoa in hand!

Reserving your night ride is easy, and exclusive to Coronado Golf Cars! Read below for more information.

Spaces fill up quick! Luckily, reserving your golf cart is easy with the help of our friendly staff. Once you’ve decided on your date, contact our office and we’ll help you out with the rest!

STEP #2 – ARRIVE FOR YOUR NIGHT RIDE

Reserved your cart? Great! When the day arrives, we recommend making some room in your schedule to find parking outside our office. There is parking along Isabella Avenue and on nearby residential streets as well. Please arrive on time so you can enjoy your full 90 minutes and see all of the lights! 🙂

If you haven’t filled out your golf cart waiver before coming in, no worries! You can fill it out inside our office. ALL drivers will need to fill out a waiver and bring their driver’s license. We’ll also need to put a form of payment on file before you go!

STEP #3 – ENJOY SOME COMPLIMENTARY HOT COCOA!

Every rental comes with complimentary hot cocoa! Get creative with sprinkles, mini marshmallows, and whipped cream – grab a cup, mix it up, and cozy up in your cart!

STEP #4 RIDE THE LIGHTS!!!

We’ll give you a walkthrough on how to drive the cart before you head out, and turn on any Christmas lights on your cart. Make sure everyone stays buckled up during the ride!

Feel free to refer to the map of Coronado we’ll give you – there’s a few Christmas light hotspots we can point out, but don’t forget to explore the island and see what decorations you can discover. More and more decorations go up everyday!

Step #5 RETURN YOUR CART

After coasting through Coronado, return your cart to 1017 Isabella Avenue. Your ride time is 90 minutes (1 hour and 30 minutes), so plan accordingly!
