Barnes Brinkcraft Day Boat Hire

Our Modern Day Launches seat up to eight people comfortably. Easy to operate, no experience required full tution given. Perfect for families, school parties, couples and groups of friends.

From our base in Wroxham — the gateway to the Broads National Park — we offer a big range of hire boats, day boats, canoes and riverside holiday homes, all pet-friendly and all designed to help you make the most of this incredible place.

The Broads National Park is made up of around 40 connected lakes and over 125 miles of fascinating waterways. There are wildlife-rich backwaters, pretty villages, hidden moorings and loads of spots you simply can’t get to by road. Once you’re afloat, you’ll understand why people fall in love with this place.

Our day boats are ideal for families, groups and first-time explorers. Hire by the hour, half day or full day — we’ll show you the ropes before you set off, so no experience needed.
