A deposit of $175+tax ($187.25) is due to book and secure your bonfire date, with the remaining payment due 15 days before the event.

As a registered bonfire vender in the area, we handle all permit requirements for you, ensuring your bonfire is fully compliant with local regulations. If an additional permit is required for catering or a large event, we will notify you.

Unlike most bonfire companies, we try to include everything built right into our pricing for full transparency. S’mores, sparklers, cooler with ice, custom welcome board, blankets, lanterns, tiki torches, you name it, we include it because no one likes to be charged extra for things that make your beach bonfire perfect!

At Fire & Tide, we use Solo Stoves to help protect our white sandy beaches and the surrounding environment. Their smokeless design produces minimal ash and leaves little to no trace—so your beach is just as beautiful when you leave as when you arrived. An added bonus? You won’t leave smelling like smoke, making it easy to enjoy dinner or evening plans right after your bonfire.

Bonfire start times depend on your preference and our availability but are best when started 30 minutes prior to sunset. From March - October, beach bonfires can start as early as 6pm and must conclude by 11pm, per county law. From November 1 - February, bonfires can start as early as 5pm and must conclude by 10pm. We allow a 15 minute grace period if you are running late before it cuts into your fire time.

Yes, all kids count as guests for permitting reasons. Each guest gets a chair, smores, bamboo skewer and roasting marshmallows, and sparklers. Kids under 2 are free.

We’ll check the weather the morning of your bonfire and reach out if we believe there will be an issue requiring delay or rescheduling. Unless it is a complete 100% washout, the best course of action is to delay until weather passes. If you request a reschedule, we’ll try our best to reserve you a spot at another date and location, based on fire permit availability. As per County law, fire permits are non-transferable and non-refundable so you would be responsible for payment of a new fire permit which is $175. Once a bonfire has been set up, they are considered rain or shine events and will not warrant a refund for any reason.

We include s’mores with all of our packages, and you can bring your own food and drinks. We also offer a cooler to keep your items cold with most packages. Additionally, we work with trusted partners in the area who provide catering and cooler stocking, if interested.

We recommend booking at least 2-4 weeks in advance to ensure permit and staff availability. We do tend to book out weekend bonfires months in advance during peak season (March-August) so recommend booking 3-6 months in advance, especially if your dates are not flexible. Permits are first-come, first-served and based on county availability, but we always do our best to secure your preferred date and location. The only way to officially secure your bonfire location and date ahead of the 2 weeks out mark would be to obtain a Special Event Permit that is an additional $175+.

Absolutely! Our bonfires are perfect for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, proposals, school events, or any special occasion. If your guest count is over 29 or bonfire requires any artificial lighting, you may need to obtain an additional permit called a Special Events Permit. Let us know how we can help make your event unforgettable.

The Special Events permit is separate than the evening burn permit we obtain from the county. It is required for bonfire gatherings of 30+ people, for catering, and for artificial lighting of any sorts (aka bistro lighting) even at smaller gatherings. Special Events permit costs start at $175+ and vary based on guest count. If you are hosting an event such as a wedding and already have a Special Event permit from that, we can likely tack on to the same permit for your bonfire event in the evening.

Besides being able to host an event with bistro lighting and/or catering, one major benefit of obtaining a Special Event Permit is the ability to secure and guarantee your beach location well in advance—rather than being limited to booking just two weeks out with a standard bonfire permit.

Additionally, under a new county ordinance, Special Event Permits allow bonfires to begin earlier in the day. This can make a big difference if you’re hoping to enjoy sunset views as part of your bonfire experience, depending on time of year.

Yes! A $100 holiday fee applies to all fires booked on major holidays. This fee goes directly to your attendant. The law prohibits beach bonfires on July 4th, December 31, and January 1 for safety reasons. We are closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day so our team can enjoy the holidays with their families.

Generally, service standard tipping (15-20%) is customary in the industry and greatly appreciated. 100% of tips go directly to your hard-working bonfire attendant.
