Moorings

The Broads Authority provides a network of 24 hour moorings.

Many more are available at places such as staithes, public houses and boatyards although these may charge a fee (moorings marked DP16 have been provided as part of a planning condition and charges may apply). Our moorings at Ranworth, Reedham, Great Yarmouth Yacht Station and Norwich Yacht Station also charge.

Mooring tips

• You can brush up on your boating skills by visiting our Boating essentials web page and watching our animated videos.
• Don't double moor without permission to tie up to the first boat.
• A private boat mooring would be advised to have the bow and stern lines direct from the vessel to the shore - hire vessels do not have the same number or length of lines.
• Always try and arrange for the boat leaving first to be on the outside but, if you are the inside boat and wish to move on, ask the crew on the outside boat to move. Remember to ensure the outside vessel is re-secured safely.  If the crew on the adjoining boat are unable to assist, keep a line ashore from their vessel and consider the tide or river flow before you plan the manoeuvre.
• Crossing the first vessel to the bank is at your own risk and you may be held responsible for any damage.
• In consultation with the hire boat federation we have also compiled the following Advice for hirers- Double Mooring (PDF).

Map of Broads Moorings

Below you can find our interactive map showing the location and type of moorings within the Broads Authority's network along with other useful information. We also have a printable map taken from our 2025 Broadcaster Magazine.

Click on a pin on the map to see information about a site or filter results using the tool on the left-hand side of the map. You can also click the 'list' button below to view the moorings in a list format.

Please note that the map only shows moorings that are managed by the Broads Authority. It does not show moorings at pubs, restaurants or other privately-operated businesses and is therefore not an exhaustive list of all moorings in the area.
