Boat Hire:
No Broadland holiday is complete without a trip on the river to explore the famous Norfolk & Suffolk Broads. Waveney River Centre is an ideal departure point for a day on the river. 

If you prefer the more tranquil waters of the southern broads then Waveney River Centre at Burgh St Peter is an ideal starting point, with the pretty market town of Beccles just 1.5 hours upstream and Oulton Broad with its large children's park about 20 minutes downstream. Somerleyton with its famous stately home and maze, and the riverside village of Reedham are other popular destinations within an hour's cruise.

There is a wide range of vessels to suit most budgets and requirements, from rowing boats and canoes to luxury day cruisers with galley, WC and cabin - many of which have been built on-site by our craftsmen here at Waveney River Centre. Buoyancy aids and fuel or paddles are included in the price and you will be given tuition before setting off on your adventure.

The Norfolk & Suffolk Broads

The Broads is the largest wetland in Britain and is specially protected with the equivalent status of a national park. There are six rivers connecting forty broads, making over 200km of waterways in all, and just waiting to be explored. Each Broad was once a medieval peat digging which was flooded to become a shallow lake after the peat was dug for fuel. Water, reeds, marshes and tangled woodlands make up the Broadlands landscape - a haven for birds and wildlife.

Broadland meets the sea at Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth, two bustling seaside towns with first class beaches to be enjoyed. Places to visit include nature reserves, churches, windmills, craft centres, and numerous riverside villages with pubs, shops and restaurants. At the western end of the river Yare is the historic city of Norwich. With its 900 year old Cathedral, Norman castle, museums, theatres, market place and shopping centre, Norwich is the capital of Broadland. Regatta and other boating events are part of life on the Broads. Ashore you will also find lots of local events, such as carnivals, and fetes to add to the fun.
