At least one Blue Flag beach in each municipality must have access and facilities provided for people with physical disabilities or impairments, and preferably even access to the water.

We believe everyone should be able to enjoy beach activities! 🏖♿

[BlueFlagUSA @BlueFlagUSA]

Specific facilities should be provided to enable access to dry sand and facilities for people with reduced mobility, such as dedicated parking places, access ramps, and equipment (to access the beach, water, surrounding buildings, and restroom facilities).

[BlueFlagUSA @BlueFlagUSA]

Blue Flag bathing water quality standards have been based on the most appropriate international and national standards and legislation. 🏊

[BlueFlagUSA @BlueFlagUSA]

🔬 Escherichia coli (faecal coli bacteria) and intestinal enterococci (streptococci) are part of the microbiological parameters to be monitored.

Should physical and chemical pollution be detected repeatedly, the Blue Flag must be taken down for the remainder of the season.

Coral reefs are the guardians of our coasts—they protect shorelines, support marine biodiversity, and sustain communities. 🐠
