Parks that have communal fire pits
A Communal fire pit is an excellent way to enjoy campfire activities while holidaying in a shared park. Not only is a communal campfire easier to manage than an individual campsite, but it also offers more potential benefits. This type of campsite often allows you to interact with other campers and explore the area together, while still providing a safe environment for all who use it.
Fire pits provide warmth and light, allowing people to stay cosy even when temperatures dip outside. They’re also great for cooking food or keeping drinks hot. And nothing beats roasting marshmallows over a glowing campfire!

Bushfire Safety in NSW
The New South Wales outback is very prone to bushfires, so when using a campfire or fire pit, there are some basic rules to keep in mind:
- Never leave the fire unattended.
- Supervise pets and children around fires.
- Avoid putting aerosol cans, glass, aluminium, or other explosive and toxic substances in the fire.
- Build the fire in a safe clear space, either an existing fireplace, raised fire pit, or within fire rings.
- When you are finished, ensure the campfire is fully extinguished and dispose of any rubbish properly.
- Also, consider bringing your own firewood, or using clean firewood supplied by the park as by law the collection of firewood from the park is not permitted. Firewood at some parks can be purchased from the kiosk or outside the parks.
Guests must comply with fire restrictions imposed by the park manager and or fire authority at the time of campfire.
While many parks do allow campfires, some National Parks and campgrounds have their own rules, so you should always check with the park office for your destination. Some national parks don't allow fires except in provided fireplaces, while the rules at Reflections parks change depending on where the park is located.
While it is a common dream to want to sit back by a roaring campfire just a stone's throw from the beautiful beaches of NSW and watch the sunset over the waves, beach fires are not allowed on most beaches in NSW within Nation Parks, except for a handful of campsites like Reflections Jimmys Beach. The best way to find out if beach fires are allowed at your destination is to call the local council office or check with the campground you plan to stay at.
