Boating on the Norfolk Broads has to be one of the most relaxing ways to spend a long weekend, or more. Pottering along at just 5mph is the perfect speed to wind down, relax and take in the National Park scenery, with long stretches of reed marsh and woodland, the banks dotted with picturesque thatched cottages plus the occasional pub for vital victuals.

Waterways Holidays says
A boating break on the Norfolk Broads opens up a world of nostalgic beauty, where miles of connecting waterways allow you to cruise through reed marshes, meadows and woodland. We offer Britain’s widest range of self-drive boating holidays on the Norfolk Broads with more than 300 cruisers on 250 miles of water.
With no locks to negotiate, the Norfolk Broads couldn’t be easier. You can moor close to welcoming riverside pubs and restaurants, pretty villages and market towns, or hole up for the night on one of the broads themselves.
Some of Britain’s rarest plants and wildlife thrive in this protected conservation area – you can explore nature reserves and country parks, walking trails and bird watching hides.
Our boats are available in a wide range of layouts, sizes and styles sleeping between 2 and 12 people. All have well-appointed interiors with bathroom, kitchen and heating facilities. Some are even equipped with whirlpool baths, four-poster beds and entertainment systems.
With no boating experience required, these breaks suit families, couples and groups of friends of all ages. Enjoy Norfolk’s waterside scenery, towns and villages from a very different perspective.
