The Broads
Norfolk itself is possibly most famous for the gorgeous man-made broads which are a National Park with well over 125 miles of lock-free waterways set in charming countryside with picture postcard quant villages and towns. The Broads National Park offers its visitors a totally unique experience, both on the rivers and lakes and next to them on the cycle ways and paths. However, it’s without question that the best way to explore the Broads is by boat. Much of the Broads cannot be reached by roads so discovering the Broads by boat can be really exciting. There are plenty of opportunities for fishing and to try and seek out some of the local wildlife too.
