| Birdwatching & Wildlife Watching |
 Norfolk is dubbed the birdwatching capital of Britain. There’s plenty to see whatever the time of year – from Barn Owls to Kingfishers, Cetti’s Warbler to Bearded Tits. Norfolk is birdwatchers’ paradise and a wonderful place for children to begin to learn about their feathered friends. There's plenty of non-avian action too - if you're lucky you may see an otter, hear the 'plop' of a water vole as it dives in the water, or see the secretive Chinese Water Deer as it scurries away!See our Norfolk Birdwatching page for more on the best places to visit and what to see when |
| Fishing |
 Norfolk offers plenty of fantastic angling opportunities. From day fishing spots on lakes, pits and rivers, to the Norfolk Broads or our fine Norfolk coastline, you are only ever a short cast away from brilliant fishing! The Norfolk Broads has over 200 miles of rivers and inland waterways stocked full of species such as pike, perch, chub, bream, roach and tench. You’ll find some of the best rod and line fishing around so even the most inexperienced will soon get a bite.For more info, see our dedicated Norfolk Fishing page |
