Bere Island has a strong and vibrant community who continually strive to protect our island's heritage, landscape and island way of life. Despite its proximity to the mainland, Bere Island retains that distinct, easy charm of rural places distant from cities and crowds. It's a quiet paradise, of a size that is manageable for walkers and cyclists. Bird watchers and plant lovers will delight at the many species to be found on land and at the water's edge.
