A boat trip on the Electric Eel, an electric powered wildlife watching boat.
Green boating
Hire an electric cruiser or day boat if you’re looking for a greener boating option. They’re quieter, create less wash and can be recharged overnight at charging points all round the Broads. Of course, the greenest option of all is to sail! For attractions and events with an environmentally friendly theme take a look at our Green Visiting pages.
The Broads Authority runs three green boat trips - have a look at the Boat trips page.

At 17ft long it has a carrying capacity of eight people including wheelchairs (maximum load 1,000 kilos).
