Remarks:
What part of the ocean beach is considered to be forest land?
How does a person get approval to have a recreational fire on the beach area, over 100 feet from the dunes in Grays Harbor County?
Is it required?
Hello Chuck,
Recreational fires generally do not require a permit. The only area is Grays Harbor that I am aware of that has restrictions on beach fires is Ocean Shores.
In general:
Use common sense,
Fire should not be greater than 3 feet across and 2 feet high,
Don’t burn garbage,
Don’t build a fire where it could easily spread to other combustible materials,
Make sure it is out cold before you leave it.
