Map of Waveney River Centre

Just beyond its junction with Oulton Dyke (leading to Oulton Broad) on the River Waveney is the Waveney River Centre. Moorings are available within the basin which is connected to teh river by a small dyke. You should moor stern-on here and expect to pay £14 for an overnight stay. This fee includes the use of the showers and toilets on the site. Short stay moorings are also available without charge.

Things to do: The site has a swimming pool and spa which is open to visitors on payment of a small entrance fee. A childrens adventure playground is free to use. The centre operates a ferry to the other bank of the Waveney which is the edge of the Carlton Marshes Nature Reserve. From here there is a circular walk or a 45 minute journey will take you to Oulton Broad. More information HERE
