Fire and glass

When the park updated its conditions page on September 7, 2026, fires were not permitted in any campground and primitive beach camping was limited to propane fires and propane barbecues. Glass is prohibited on sandy beaches and the cliff-jumping rocks. Fire rules change, so check the current page before you go.
