Is A Camp Fire Permitted on Brigantine Beach?

by Frank
(PA)

In Brigantine, can you have a controlled camp fire on the beach in July?

Frank's Reply

Hi;

Brigantine Beach is similar to most other beaches in New Jersey with having very strict ordinances against the use of the beach for parties and camp fires.

Brigantine Beach's ordinance states "The starting or maintenance of a fire or fires on the beach at any time during the entire year is prohibited."

Are There Any Places in New Jersey
to have a Bonfire With a permit?!

by Allison A
(Edison, NJ)

Hi, I'm looking for a place where I can hold a gathering + bonfire in New Jersey! I want to set up a gathering for my senior class in June. Please let me know. I have heard it is possible to have a bonfire at Sandy Hook WITH a permit.

Hi Allison;
New Jersey beaches and towns have very restrictive ordinances against having Bon Fires on beaches.

Sandy Hook, as you indicated, does not allow any bon fires on their beach.

All the best on your senior class gathering,

Hi, my birthday is coming up. I was wondering if bonfires are allowed for a small group of people. NO ALCOHOL.
Very SAFE, just some time to spend to together.

thank you! Donna

Hi Donna;
Beaches and towns in New Jersey have very strict ordinances against having bonfires without a permit and adequate oversight from township officials.

We are not aware of any beach or town that would allow a bonfire for a small group of people celebrating a birthday party.

Please let us know if you are successful in finding a site to have a bonfire as this is a very popular request.

Regards,
Frank Dalotto
