Norfolk, The Wash and Humber

Successor to Henry Irving's long-established guide to the nooks and crannies of this fascinating corner of the east coast of England, this new title has extended coverage under the authorship of retired harbourmaster and local cruising sailor Peter Harvey.

Some choose to bypass this beautiful section of coast and its extraordinary natural habitats, but this cruising guide gives inspiration to anyone who wishes to explore the many shallow creeks and deeper historic harbours of Norfolk, Lincolnshire and the Humber.

With thoroughly updated text and plans and new photographs throughout, The Wash and Humber remains an essential companion to this interesting and rewarding section of our coastline.

Praise for Norfolk, The Wash and Humber

"Henry Irving’s Tidal Havens of the Wash and Humber has special status in my personal pantheon of pilot books. We found it not just factually indispensable but gloriously opinionated, knowledgeable and well-written. It’s a companion as well as a guide. Peter Harvey’s new look at the area does not disappoint. He is, if anything, even more companionable as he is unafraid to recommend leaving the boat and taking to one’s bike, paddleboard or the local bus service to get fuller appreciation of this supremely atmospheric area from Lowestoft to Spurn Head. Peter Harvey’s new guide is motivating as well as indispensable. It’s hard to resist the urge to set off at once."
