Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!
We used to launch our RIB from the camp site at Waveney River Centre. Access to the river and then onto Oulton Broad. They can also supply any necessary Broads Licence.

Wow........... Thank you Ronni, That is the site I was looking at!!! but but but they charge £7 to launch it !!! FLeecing!
Chees Keith.
£7 to put a canoe in water?!!! if you've bought the relevant permits then why would you have to pay to launch it?
Just looked on the website and the charge is on the section for visiting boats using the marina and is a bit vague. I have sent them an email and asked for clarification (may want to take our kayak there next season). I will let you know if I get a reply.
Got a reply from the site. You have to pay for the slipway but most people just put their kayaks in from the riverside and thus avoid the charge.
Just checked my reviews and it seems to have been 8 years since we were there so I have no idea what the site is like now, but I do remember what a lovely trip it was along the river and onto Oulton Broad. Not sure how far it is as we had an outboard motor!!
