Burning restrictions are in place in Nova Scotia from March 15 to October 15 each year. No domestic brush burning or campfires are allowed between 8 am and 2 pm during wildfire risk season. All provincial, municipal, and private campgrounds must follow the burning restrictions. Burning restrictions in national park campgrounds are under the jurisdiction of Parks Canada.
The fine for violating burning restrictions is $25,000.
Restrictions are updated daily at 2 pm on the BurnSafe map.
Whether you prefer roughing it in the back country, glamping by the ocean, or pulling up in your RV, opportunities to camp in Nova Scotia are abound. Adventures in national and provincial parks, seaside tenting, oTENTik accommodations, equipped camping, and sleeping in a yurt on your own private island are all available here.
