🔥 The #unpalletable truth about beach fires🔥

The nights are drawing in, but the weather is still lovely so you might be tempted to have a campfire on the beach. Please don't burn wooden pallets. Why?

❗️Nails don't burn. They lurk in the sand ready to cause harm.
❗️Embers stay hot for ages. They can burn toes, paws and claws.

The safest way to enjoy a beach campfire is by using a raised firepit. Our video explains how to use one. Please share this message about enjoying your time on Fife's fantastic beaches safely.

Staff from Aviva got together this week to help clean up at Tayport. The Fife Coastal Path runs through Tayport and the Aviva Team cleaned up along the path and on some of the beautiful beaches along this section of the coast. A huge thank you to the Aviva Team for making such a difference in our outdoor places!
