A SCRUB is burning out of control at Dolphin Sands, north of Swansea, on Tasmania's East Coast.
Residents of Dolphin Sands Rd have been urged to activate their bushfire plans, with the Tasmania Fire Service sending 10 units to tackle the blaze.
The TFS has enacted a "watch and act status" for the fire, which means conditions are changing and residents need to start taking action to protect themselves and their families.
Anyone wishing to leave the area has been advised to do so now but only if the path is clear.
The football club at Swansea will be the evacuation point if required.
A Tasmania Police spokesman said officers had been sent from Swansea and Bicheno to help the TFS.
The blaze was reported about 3.30pm today.
Non-residents are advised to stay away from the affected areas.
There may be embers, smoke and ash falling on Dolphin Sands Rd and Cambria Rd is closed.
For up-to-date information, listen to ABC Local Radio and visit the TFS website.
