Brownsea is a magical place where people and nature happily coexist, wildlife is conserved, and the landscape is sensitively managed. In spite of its small size, Brownsea has a wealth of different habitats to explore, from a sheltered lagoon to open heath, seashores, grasslands and woodland, each boasting its own fascinating wildlife.
We have plenty of way marked walks for the whole family or more experienced rambler and winter is the perfect time to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the island. You may even spot one of the elusive Sika deer or the rare red squirrel.
