Boat safaris
The Wetland Discovery Boat Safari is a twenty-minute guided trip on a quiet electric boat through beautiful wetland habitats full of seasonal wildlife.
You begin along the water meadows and the islands full of sedge and reeds. You move onto the carr woodland brimming with water loving willows and black poplar - look out for kingfishers perching on the branches. The final section is channels cut through towering reed beds. Keep an eye out for soaring birds of prey from the Offham hangar in the autumn and winter months.
Along the way your guide will identify and help you spot the wetland wildlife and plant life, including the elusive sedge and reed warblers flitting in and out of their reed bed nests. Take in excellent views of birds of prey soaring on the thermal of the Offham Hangar throughout the seasons.
