In Brief

A petition on Jersey urges legalising wild camping on beaches, proposing a booking system. Currently banned island-wide, only eight official sites are available.

A petition has been launched on Jersey calling for wild camping to be made legal on beaches. The initiative proposes a booking system to manage overnight stays and hold violators accountable. Currently, wild camping is banned across the island, including beaches, with only eight official sites available.

The campaign says responsible campers should be allowed to stay overnight on beaches. With 1,000 signatures, authorities must respond; with 5,000, the matter will be considered by parliament.
