Escape the everyday and experience the beauty of the Norfolk Broads from the water with Richardson’s Day Boats. Based at our marina in Stalham, we’re perfectly placed to help you discover Britain’s largest protected wetland, with miles of peaceful, lock-free waterways, abundant wildlife and picturesque riverside villages waiting to be explored.
Whether you’re planning a family day out, a relaxing afternoon with friends or a peaceful escape as a couple, our easy-to-handle day boats make getting out on the water simple and enjoyable. Choose from our fleet of modern electric and diesel boats, all equipped with comfortable seating, retractable canopies and everything you need for a memorable day afloat. No previous boating experience is required, as our friendly team provides full tuition before you set off.
Your visit starts and ends at our welcoming marina, where you’ll find free parking, modern facilities and our popular riverside Marina Café, serving freshly prepared coffee, cakes, light bites and refreshments. It’s the perfect place to begin your adventure or unwind after a day on the water.
Dogs are welcome too, so every member of the family can enjoy the experience.
At Richardson’s, we’ve been helping visitors create unforgettable memories on the Norfolk Broads for generations.
