I have been advised by the Parks and Leisure team that the bylaw states Gas bbqs are allowed on the beach and surrounding areas as they are contained. However if you Wish to have a Charcoal bbq on the beach you can do so as long as it is within the High Tide mark and the water. You can not have the bbq near the sand dunes or surrounding area as the bbq is not contained.
Kind Regards
