The Big Dog Ferry runs between Beccles Lido and Geldeston Locks Inn

A relaxing 3 mile boat journey along the River Waveney

Disembark and enjoy a meal or drink at The Locks Inn, or stay on board for the round trip. If you're feeling energetic then take a one-way ticket and walk back along the riverside footpath.

We also collect and drop-off at Geldeston Marina and Three Rivers Campsite (for the Wherry Inn).

Booking highly recommended - please call 07532 072761 for bookings and visit www.bigdogferry.co.uk for timetable and more details

NOW AVAILABLE!

We offer canoe hire from the Lido in association with TheCanoeMan

Enjoy a canoe trip upsteam from the lido on one of the most attractive and unspoilt stretches of the River Waveney. Dependent on how fast you paddle, the journey to The Locks Inn, where you can stop for a meal or drink, will take about 1.5 hours each way. Fancy a longer trip? The stretch of river above The Locks Inn to Ellingham is unnavigable to other craft so you can lose yourself in the peace and tranquillity of the wonderful river and it's wildlife

Advance bookings only - please visit The Canoe Man website for more information and to book or email info@thecanoeman.com
