The best Inland Waterways Flotilla Holidays in the U.K

If you love the independence of sailing your own yacht, but enjoy socialising as part of a group, then this is the perfect choice for your summer holiday 2026.

Why Norfolk?

The Broads National Park offers over 125 miles of navigable waterways and our flotilla team will sail you to some of the most undiscovered moorings, the wildest natural beauty spots and the true ‘hidden gems’ that only the locals know. 

Why a flotilla holiday?

No experience necessary – if you are new to sailing don’t worry, we will provide you with a skipper on board for up to 8 hours a day and by the end of the week you will all be confident crew members! 

Friendly support and guidance – we will be there with you to offer 24 hour support including help negotiating the bridges and locks, planning the route so you don’t have to and mooring you safely at the end of every day.  

Perfect for families, friends and small groups – a flotilla holiday is a great way to socialise and have fun and to get the whole family involved in learning a new skill.  

Challenging sailing in a safe environment– many of our customers choose a flotilla holiday for that extra little bit of support when sailing some of our regions more challenging waterways. We cross the infamous ‘Breydon Water’, a tidal expanse only navigable at low tide and enjoy some of the narrowest rivers and hidden mooring spots our region has to offer.
