Blue Flag Good Practices
The Blue Flag Good Practice Competition was created as a response to the growing need and interest of beaches, marinas and tourist boats in creative and easy-to-replicate ideas to enhance their sustainability.
After a positive reception of its first edition, Blue Flag International decided to keep on facilitating and encouraging the exchange of innovative good practices in its network, by integrating the competition into the annual International Evaluations that award eligible sites with Blue Flag for upcoming season.
