Home to the endangered red squirrel, Brownsea Island is a haven for wildlife and a renowned site for bird watchers. The varied and beautiful landscape makes for some fine walks; with woodlands and fields inland and cliffs and beaches on the coast offering some spectacular views of Poole Harbour. The island is also famous for being the birthplace of Scouting and Guiding. The Baden-Powell Outdoor Centre offers sailing, canoeing, archery, orienteering and other outdoor activities at the site where the very first Scouts camp took place in 1907.
