Cambridge, North Norfolk and the Broads in
Punt on the Cam, head north to the coast for seals and sandy beaches, then cross the Broads to Norwich.
A west–east crossing of East Anglia: Cambridge colleges, Ely Cathedral and the royal estate at Sandringham, then the North Norfolk coast with its broad beaches and seals, before boating on the Norfolk Broads and finishing in Norwich's old town. The pace is relaxed and drives are short, suiting families and repeat visitors to Britain. The Suffolk coast is left out; seal boats depend on the tides.
Some Cambridge colleges close during exams in May–June; seals can be seen year-round.
