Advantages: Peaceful, tranquil and close to many other fantastic locations (North Norfolk Coast etc)

Disadvantages: Spoilt by litter, tourism and ever growing tourism numbers

These are found in the lovely county of Norfolk in England, and are a network of interlinked Rivers and lakes. These were formed as the lakes used to hold peat and are formed completely from man, and are linked together by the many channels that hold them.

Tourist Attractions-
On the broads you can hire motor cruisers to explore the area for yourself, these are available at Wroxham mainly as well as various other towns. You can also learn the art of sailing within them, or windsurfing with many sailing schools based around the broads waters, giving a complete edge to the attraction. There are also popular large boats that give guides to many tourists - these also leave from Wroxham.

The general environment -
The broads is very peaceful, tranquil and generally a lovely place to spend an afternoon. You can have as much fun walking down beside the riverbanks as you can have playing on a sailing boat. These are becoming slightly spoilt however, as litter becomes more popular along with the increasing tourist numbers - my solution? go now rather than later.

Summary: Go now, not next year or the year after as it will be spoilt by tourism
