The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 7 fires within 5 miles of Niles Beach between 2013 and 2020, burning about 4 acres in total. None started naturally. 1 was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Curtice
• New Jerusalem (historical)
• Yondota
• Bono
• Booth
• Lakemont Landing

Every fire recorded in Lucas County

Museums hold 1,548 specimens collected within 10 miles of Niles Beach between 1863 and 1975: 1,344 Animalia, 152 Fungi, 43 Plantae, 4 Protozoa, 3 Chromista, 2 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by AS Hazzard & party, Aborn, R., Al Szuch and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
