Explore the Norfolk Broads’ Hidden Corners - Far from the Crowds

Slip away from the busy boating centres and into a quieter world. With Martham Boats, you can navigate to secluded waters, peaceful backwaters, and unspoilt stretches of the Broads that most visitors never see. Our fleet is specially designed to pass under every bridge on the network, giving you the freedom to explore at your own pace.
Along the way, you’ll reconnect with nature, discover wildlife up close, and enjoy the calm beauty of this unique landscape - whether you’re sailing, cruising, or simply drifting under the big Norfolk skies.
As a fourth-generation, family-run boatyard, we combine the charm of tradition with the care of true craftsmanship, ensuring every journey carries both authenticity and adventure.

Mooring facilities
We offer various facilities at our premises which include showers, toilet facilities, water, diesel, pump out facilities and car parking as well as our own slip way, for those that want to do there own maintenance we have an undercover shed which we allow owners to carry out their own work. We have staff on hand if you require assistance or questions,
We do keep an eye on the craft we have moored with us to make sure all is good. for example if we have had heavy wind we take a walk along the moorings to make sure the boats have not sustained any damage if they have we will report back to the owner.
