Solar Heritage

Welcome aboard the Solar Heritage, a solar powered catamaran. Take a trip through Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with an experienced guide to help you learn about this unique area.

On-board the engines are virtually silent as you glide along with plenty of time to admire the view and get up close to many of the birds and habitats that make this place so special.
