Fireworks at Shelter Cove

During tourism season, fireworks flame every Tuesday night in the summer at Shelter Cove. This has been a tradition of the marina for many years. The Marina provides a boastful display of lights and pyrotechnics along Broad Creek. Admission and Parking is free and there are plenty of nearby shops to check out. There are also great places to get your favorite refreshments.

You can take a special cruise for excellent view of the show with Vagabond Cruises on Tuesday nights. Many of the Kayak and boat companies offer wonderful tours for the show. The Old Factory Restaurant and public boat landing also offer nice views.

firework fun fact

It is very common for fireworks to contain aluminum, iron, steel, zinc or magnesium dust in order to create bright, shimmering sparks. The metal flakes heat up until they are incandescent and shine brightly or, at a high enough temperature, actually burn. A variety of chemicals can be added to create colors.
