THE BROADS
There are many options for a day out on the broads. You can take to the waters by hiring a boat, paddleboard or kayak.

You could head to the bustling seaside town of Great Yarmouth where you have so much to entertain you whether it be inflatables on the beach, the funfairs, arcades, sea life centre, crazy golf and so much more.
