Moorings
Well you have got your boat, fully stocked for your cruise, the itinerary is set but where to stop for the night? No worries as there are plenty of moorings available for the intrepid explorers of the Norfolk Broads rivers and waterways. There are quite a number of free 24 hour Broads Authority moorings throughout the Broads, we have listed them below and there are plenty of privately owned moorings and broads where if you tie up to the bank or drop a mud weight, you can expect to pay a fee. Some of the moorings are in the middle of a waterside village or close to one, some of the riverside pubs offer free mooring if you spend time enjoying a drink or a meal in their establishments and there are also yacht stations and marinas. Or you can go it alone and just stop, tie up to the riverbank amongst the marshes and reed beds, then sit back to enjoy the sights and sounds of the countryside
