The Broads are great for canoeing. Calm water with little or no tidal movement makes for easy paddling that even complete novices can enjoy. Navigate the rivers, explore the broads and discover the places that the motor boats can't go. Take in the beautiful scenery and enjoy unique and close up wildlife experiences. Hire a canoe or kayak from TheCanoeMan and see the broads as they are meant to be seen
TheCanoeMan currently has 7 launch venues, each providing access to its own unique environment, attractions and wildlife. Use the interactive map to decide which best suits you.
