We have over 80 Norfolk holiday boats to choose from, suiting all budgets and requirements, from 2 berth holiday boats to our large cruisers that accommodate 12 people. We provide training, life jackets, maps, guides, bedding and a welcome aboard pack, and many boats have WiFi. Add a paddleboard or rowing dinghy along with your main holiday boat and explore the less accessible areas of the broads, too!
Holidays start days are on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays or Saturdays.
Whatever style of hire boat you fancy, modern, traditional, practical or sporty, all of our Norfolk holiday boats are well equipped and fitted with the kit you need to have a comfortable and enjoyable boating holiday on the Norfolk Boards. For more information, please read our guide on choosing your perfect boat.
Luxury Norfolk Broads Cruisers
These feature our most technically advanced luxury holiday boats; a typical example is the Brinks Rhapsody, an excellent modern design with solar panels and a quiet hybrid engine that is both diesel and electric powered. This makes it better for the environment and provides peaceful, relaxing cruising.
Mid Range Broads Holiday Cruisers
Our mid-range Norfolk holiday boats are our most popular, as they provide the perfect balance of comfort and cost. Many of these holiday boats were the leaders in their class a few years ago, but time, technology, and expectations continue to move on.
Norfolk Broads Budget Boating Holidays
These much-loved budget holiday boats have all the basics for a simple, carefree, low-cost boating holiday on the Norfolk Broads. We pride ourselves on maintaining our budget fleet of Norfolk Broad cruisers to a high standard, whatever their age.
