Highlights

Nowhere in the entirety of Norfolk can you find yourself on an adventure like this… !

A true adventure vacation over 3 days and 3 nights of Stand Up Paddle Boarding, Hiking, Wild Camping under a blanket of stars and a touch of Sea Swimming/Dip (with seals if you’re lucky) - all rolled into a package that will have you covering some of Norfolks most beautiful rivers, broads, footpaths, sand dunes and beaches - sounds idiilic right!

As the broads are pretty much a total world of water, one of the best ways to see it is from standing on top of a stand up paddle board. Gracefully gliding across the vast expanses of broads, winding your way along its rivers and stopping to eat, drink and soak up its beautiful atmosphere from the riverbanks. On this adventure they’ll be plenty of SUP action, with both short and a longer tours with a fully qualified and highly experienced SUP guide with over 10 years teaching experience. Rest assured you’ll be in the best hands when it comes to this element of the adventure.

Getting around is not just on the water, but hiking the trails around the reed-rustling waterways are a must do experience, and with the trails on this trip leading to the beach (and your overnight camp for the night), you’ll get to really see the famous Norfolk ‘big skies’ I call their enormous beauty.

An overnight beach camp, with open fire, pot-cooked food and a chance to chill out, grab a beer, listen to the waves and stargaze at the plethora of stars over the sea - oh, and not forgetting beach breakfast the next morning!

After a bit of a wake up and some salt in your hair, you’ll pack up and get moving with a hike from the beach and back to the water world of the broads. This is where we’ll jump back onto the boards and start to wind our way back to some semi-civilisation via some pretty amazing scenery and rare wildlife the broads has to offer…!

Cancellations

Custom Policy

Introduction

Here at Norfolk Outdoor Adventures we understand that sometimes the weather can turn against us and also that life changes and can occasionally get in the way of us having a good time! Therefore we thought it fair to clearly advise you as to what our policy is on cancellations - wether it’s due to canceling/postponing activities and experiences due to circumstances beyond our control or from a cancellation of a booking directly from the participant. 

Cancellation due to inclement weather

 All lessons, activities, experiences and coaching are subject to weather conditions and the availability of instructors/guides and maybe be cancelled or postponed at short notice. Please be aware that in the case of beginner/novice SUP activities the maximum wind speed that a SUP activity will be allowed to take place is 14/15 mph (or 12/13 knots), above this level then the beginner/novice will quite simply not be able to cope or indeed learn anything and therefore as a result the session will be cancelled. Should this be the case then you will be notified as soon as possible (certainly by the evening before) and sent a Credit Voucher which will enable you to re-book for any of our sessions or activities in the future which will be valid for 1 calendar year from the date of booking.

Participant Cancellation

Participant cancellations can within a 7 day cooling off period of the date of the booked event, are able to cancel their booking subject to 25% administrative fee. Any cancellations by the participant(s) within 24 hours of the planned activity cannot be refunded. This can only be applied to original bookings only and is not applicable to any vouchers or credits which arose from the original booking. 

Minimum Pre-Booked Participation Requirements

As you can understand it takes quite a lot of organisation and planning to run our group activities successfully, therefore we will only run our pre-bookable group activities if we have received the minimum booking numbers to make the activity work on the day. Please see what these minimums are by looking at the individual activities we offer as they will differ from one to the other. Should the activity look like it will not take place due to insufficient bookings, you will be notified of it’s cancelation as soon as possible (5pm night before at the latest) and as we don't want you to miss out - a gift voucher will be sent you to enabling you to re-book for any of our activities, course, craft hire or coaching in the future and will be valid for 1 calendar year from the date of booking.

Natural Disasters

No refunds will be offered if cancellation is due to an unforeseeable natural disaster (Force Majour) or ‘events outside our reasonable control’. We will of course honour your booking going forward and will offer you a unique credit voucher which will enable you to re-book for any of our activities, course, craft hire or coaching in the future which will be valid for 1 calendar year from the date of booking..
