Any restrictions on open fires (camp fires) at the inland sea?
For the group who camped at the inland sea last weekend, or anyone else who may have some insight.
Are open fires(bonfires, campfires, call them what you will) 'legal' at the inland sea?
A Qatari friend of mine mentioned that they've been tightening up the regulations in terms of the more permanent camp sites, garbage/junk left behind and he felt that you might need to have a 'permit' or permission of some sort to have a fire.
Does anyone know if there is any truth to this? Over the past 4 years I've camped many times and its never been an issue. I'm camping this weekend and not looking forward to any unpleasant surprises, going to get on the telephone but Thursday afternoon is a poor time to deal with government departments.
Thanks for any advice, and sorry for the cross post.

Ha... No worries of that :)
Just didn't want to get a surprise like the new traffic laws and find myself with a 5000 QR fine or something equally exorbitant.
hahahahah very true
but so far as long as you just burn wood... no one will care... and since its just sand and water out there... there is no real chance of spreading a forest fire... so you will be fine

just hanging out and watching dvd's with helen keller... kind of a quite night.
It's probably best to just continue doing what you have been doing...if there was a law it would have been announced. Always a bad idea to give government agencies ideas on new regulations.
