Poole’s harbour has been a trading and shipbuilding hub for centuries; Brownsea Island hosted the 1907 camp often cited as the start of the Scouting movement.
Conservation
Poole Harbour contains protected mudflats and marshes (SSSI areas) — stick to marked trails, avoid disturbing nesting birds and carry out litter to reduce plastic and wildlife disturbance.
