Since 2023, purpose-built kittiwake nesting structures line the route, bringing seabirds into the mix alongside raw coastal scenery.

What to expect
You'll depart from Lowestoft Harbour with genuine working boats around you—fishermen, commercial traffic, the authentic pulse of a functioning port. The boat then accelerates into open water, giving you an entirely different angle on the town's beaches and coastal landmarks. Expect spray, wind, and the thrum of the engine. The kittiwake structures add a wildlife dimension: you might spot nesting birds depending on season and conditions. The pace is energetic throughout.
