Blue Flag certification guarantees that a beach meets 33 criteria across four categories: bathing water quality (meeting or exceeding EU Bathing Water Directive standards), environmental education and information (information boards, eco-activity programmes), environmental management (no illegal discharge, controlled access in sensitive areas), and safety and services (lifesaving equipment, first aid, accessible facilities). Certification is assessed annually and can be revoked immediately if any mandatory criterion is breached, making the Blue Flag a dependable and annually refreshed indicator of beach quality.
