Overview
Be an “eco-tourist” on a 1.5-hour solar boat cruise of Charlottetown Harbour with live music & optional lobster/chicken lunch! Our 34-passenger solar-electric vessel features a kitchen, comfy booth seating, Wi-Fi, a licensed bar, and a large lavatory. The last remaining boat from the famous 1967 Montreal Expo (World’s Fair), this 59-year-old Canadian Heritage Vessel underwent an 8-year rebuild to become North America’s LARGEST solar boat and the ONLY solar-powered dinner-cruise boat in the world.
Not just a tour—make it a lunch cruise by adding fresh PEI lobster or braised 1/4 chicken with Caesar salad (house-made dressing) and a fresh dinner roll or large Caesar salad. Alcoholic & non-alcoholic drinks are available for purchase onboard. With solar power, there’s no engine noise, no diesel smell & every cruise features live Maritime music for the ultimate East Coast vibe.
