Surrounded by the Norfolk Coast and with miles of inland waterways on the Broads, Norfolk is a fabulous place to come for a boat cruise. The Norfolk Broads are 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. Water, reeds, marshes and tangled woodlands make up the Broadland landscape - a haven for birds and wildlife. The North Norfolk Coast has many creeks, channels and inlets to explore. Places to visit include nature reserves, churches, windmills, craft centres, and numerous waterside villages with pubs, shops and restaurants. |
