This 1967 CDN Heritage Vessel underwent an 8 yr, $1M renovation to become North America's LARGEST solar-powered vessel & the world's FIRST solar dinner cruise boat, now providing daily cruises with food & beverage options available right on board.
No emissions. No noise. No smell. This is "tourism refined". Instead of a loud, smelly, diesel-powered tour, have a true experience on the water with drinks, & food right on the boat. Beautiful sights in the SHELTERED WATERS of Charlottetown Harbour in a comfortable covered boat, large windows by every seat & opening roof hatches to catch the sun.
This historical sight-seeing experience is has live commentary, WiFi, 4 video screens, French & Italian subtitles, trivia with prizes & more!
Large bathroom & booth seating for your comfort. Lots of room to walk around, steer the boat & explore the facinating '67 Montreal Expo memorabilia, for which our boat was built!
PLEASE ARRIVE 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE TOUR STARTS. We have a private dock right at the Port of Charlottetown at the far end beside where the cruise ships dock. From land: Walk down the side of the Port Terminal Building all the way to the end & look for our green & white Ride Solar flag.
Our captain will give you a brief history of the Charlottetown Harbour - the "Cradle of Confederation" when Canada first became a country, the Mi'kmaq who first settled the province, as well as a bit about the Charlottetown Harbour itself.
The Isola Solaretto will pass silently by beautiful Victoria Park, where you can see the cannons & armaments of this historic fort.
You will see the entrance to Charlottetown Harbour and famous Port-la-Joye (Fort Amherst) at Rocky Point.
Here you will see the "Birthplace of Canada" where the colonies Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia & New Brunswick met for the first time in 1864 to determine that Canada would become a country.
Your captain will take you by several multi-million dollar houses, including a $15M home to show you some "rock armouring" for shoreline protection gone wrong. PEI is losing about 1 ft of shoreline every year and there is a right way & a wrong way to protect it.
