Total Fire Ban July 17 – October 15

Published by Juanita Walton on

As the fire conditions are currently high, all burning on Texada Island is banned beginning Thursday July 17.

This means no campfires are allowed anywhere on the island!

This ban applies to all recreational and camping areas: Shelter Point, Bella Maria, Shingle Beach and Bob’s Lake.

Included in this ban are:

  • Sky lanterns
  • Wood-fired hot tubs, pizza ovens, and similar wood-fired devices (unless inside a building with a proper chimney)
  • Exploding targets
  • Fireworks
  • Burn barrels or cages
  • Air curtain burners and similar equipment

Propane campfires and BBQs are still allowed.

Please follow these regulations and use common sense to help prevent wildfires and keep everyone safe!
