BBQs and litter
Barbecues are permitted in designated BBQ areas along Southsea seafront.
Check and follow the signs before setting up your barbecue. They show where barbecues are and are not permitted.
Using a barbecue safely
If you're having a barbecue:
- use designated BBQ areas, away from fire risks and trees
- place your barbecue on a secure, level base, stand, paved area or bricks
- never use petrol or other unsafe flammable liquids to light a barbecue
- never leave a barbecue unattended
- look out for other people, particularly children and pets
- if you are using a gas barbecue and suspect a leak, turn it off immediately
- bring water with you to put out a charcoal barbecue
- make sure disposable barbecues are completely out before disposing of them
- use the designated black and red bins for barbecues and coals
Barbecues are not permitted during special events.
