GUIDED TIDAL SUP TOUR
Book it Ahead
Our guided tours are the perfect way to explore the vast network of creeks at Brancaster Staithe with a local guide. We'll take you to one our favourite locations including: the Rose Gardens or Scout Hut on Scolt Head Island, to Brancaster Beach via the beach huts or along the reed banks depending on the tide and weather conditions. With all our tours we work within the tide, we aim to go out on the tide and come back in on the tide - doing so means the water quite literally takes us out and brings us back! There will be times where you will be instructed to paddle quickly against the tide/ wind and a good level of upper body strength and fitness is required for this. This activity is suitable 16+, under 18's there must accompanied by parent or guardian.
