Does anyon have any info on a huge fire that broke out last night east of Camp Creek? Someone was putting on quite a fireworks display and the next thing we saw was a raging fire. It was too far for us to walk to so we were not sure if it was a brush fire or structure fire.

Heard about several fires last nights, probably from illegal fireworks, and heard that one beach house burned -- probably the big fire you are talking about.

It was the beach walkover and brush on the dunes that burned. It looked like the whole house from the beach. The house may have gotten some smoke damage but it didn't look like there was any fire damage.

Where did this happen?


Sea Crest
Beach access # 5
Right past that New Development The Magnolia thats on the left, yes the fire engulfed the the stairs and the dunes. Had it not been for a lone civilian spraying
down the palm tree that abutted the house the house would have caught fire.
He continually sprayed it until the fire dept went into action.
