It won’t be long before the children are back to school and there are fewer people on the Broads it is then the rivers take on a very different pace of life as everything becomes more calm.

There is something magical about autumn holidays on the Broads, finding a quiet mooring is easier, the village pubs are less crowded and people who love the area for its sheer tranquility and beautiful sunsets tend to take their holidays.

To appreciate the area’s natural beauty we advise people to drop the mud weight and moor in the middle of a Broad, to hear the birds saying goodnight and hear the rhythmic wing beats of geese in flight.  Or to find a mooring far away from the villages and simply relax in total peace and quiet.

Fishermen appreciate this period, as there are fewer boats to disturb them; and bird spotters can roam along the banks in silence looking for rare species like the bittern and marsh harriers
